I purchased a Sam off this list that came with albastache bars and bar-end shifters. This was my first non-drop bar on a road+ bike and my first experience with bar-end shifters. I loved the combo immediately. They are really convenient - easy to reach and easy to use. I suppose I have to be a bit careful on a tight turn, but I prefer to be a bit careful on a tight turn.
Re wanting grips, I have another pre-owned Riv that came with albatross bars with bar-end shifters and cork grips with the whole thing was wrapped in cotton. That works great too.
