Amen to this! Try it out, change it, sell those that don't work, then buy replacements at much more cost when you figure out that, after all, you *did* like that combination -- or, at least, want to try it again. I've done this with M-bars at least half a dozen times; ditto for many different kinds of WTB-type flared drops. The same with saddles (Brookses of various kinds cost me much $$ but failed to satisfy) and pedals [spent $$$ on clips 'n' straps but eventually came back to SPDs {Shimano only, no damn' clones}) and Looks.])}])>.
However, when all is said and done, me, I keep coming back to relatively shallow drop, 3 cm below saddle, narrow bars on road and 2" higher, slightly wider drops for my off road bikes.
