I find I am sort of a stick-in-the-mud with old habits. I am very comfortable on "criterium" bend bars and the "Giros". Just wish to try different components.

What makes a good randonneur bar to you? I've cycle-toured all around the world on Cinelli bars that I suppose you would define 'racing' and have always been fully satisfied. I've tried many so-called 'randonneur' bars and have never found one that I would ever put on a cycle-touring bike.
