I've been mulling your dilemma since you posted it, Mark. I keep rereading it attempting to puzzle what seems so familiar. I think (dangerous territory!) hand/wrist comfort was part of my challenge with Albas and why I switched (and delightedly so) to A'staches. The more "technical" (a poor word choice here. Rough and tumble, perhaps?) a road or trail that greater the hand and wrist discomfort became. I tried many and various heights and tilts. Then onto the A'staches and "Ahhhhhhh!" Plus, as a bonus, I could ride the drops/curves/hoods/forward position AND have brakes. When I'm upright and cruisin', no need to brakes. That's my "tra-la-la, oom-pum-tiddly-pom" Pooh position. No brakes required. At the first sign of a heffalump or bees or other adventure -- "To the Hoods! Whoah! Brakes. Just when I need them." Grin.
That's a lot of words to say I think I've been there and I understand your pain and you may end up switchin' bars if you're as muddled about it as I was, until I wasn't any more. Grin.
