+1 for the Albatross bars. I'm sure there are lots of things they don't do well. Apparently, though, I don't do any of those things at all. They are the best.
For me, it's 1) 56cm Albatross 2) 51.5cm Moustache 3) 66cm Bullmoose (extended) - TallMoose 4a) 48cm Noodles 4b) 66cm Bullmoose (non-extended) Interestingly, my first pair of Albatross bars were Nitto's 54cm wide aluminum bars. I rode with them and thought (channeling my inner Snob) "meh". Later I put on Nitto's 56cm wide CrMo bars; I rode with them and knew I had the bar for me from the very first ride. Those 2cm were really important. And I have a set of Nitto's 56cm wide aluminum Albatross bars, not sold by RBW; they are also wonderful. If there's a difference in "feel" or anything, I don't notice it. It's all about the width. So much Nitto, so little time...
