No matter which bars you choose, you will enjoy riding your Hunq. That's
for sure.
I use Shimano brakes CX70.
I took away the Y-shaped link wire which came with brakes

and replaced them with Dia-Compe's straddle hanger yoke

Mine are on an Atlantis.

Thanks go to Brian/Stonehog. He's a harlequin master. I enjoyed the
challenge of it, but won't be doing it again anytime soon.
Liesl-- you're welcome to ride it when you're in town. You choose the h-bar!

Shoji! +1 on killing me with the maroon/ gray harlequin wrap on a bike that has
my all fave stock paint job! Plus it's my size!

Thanks for the photos, Shoji. Also, you're killing it with that coordinated
red/grey tape on the moustache bars

If you use Centerpulls then you can make sure you have slotted cable
hangars and you can unhook and remove the brakes without needing splitters.
Then you just have to do new runs for the new bars. You do need enjoy
barrel adjusters and straddle carriers (what are those called!).
If you use stem
Oh, and Divinci sells a "bar swap" kit that includes four males and two
females for this exact purpose.

You use them on bare cables, not in the middle of a housed section.
If you have mtb brake levers, you can sneak the cable nipple out of the
lever. This works well for swapping between Albatross and Bullmoose
(provided you can live with the same length of brake housing). If you are
swapping b
ok, you've got my interest. the cable splitters, im assuming, are little
ends that let you attach and de-attach cables at a midpoint of your
choosing? ive seen them, but im not 100% sure about how they work. so...
do they need to be attached on bare cable, or is there a way to do it in
the middl
I do this same thing with my two Hillbornes. Though in my case I confess I
tend to use the Bosco and Albatross bars most of the time (80%). I've used
my Moustache every now and then and I've only rarely used the Noodles
and Bullmoose over the past year or two.
Even with my limited exploitation
I've set up my Hunqapillar with all of 'em:
Noodles (48cm, 10-cm stem)
Albatross (12-cm stem)
Bullmoose
Moustache (7-cm stem)
I use cable splitters for quick changes of handlebars. Takes ~10 min to
swap from one to another. (Takashi, who's also on this group with a
Hunqapillar, is also a bar swa
my hunq had albatross bars and a 11cm tallux for most of it's life. for
most normal day riding, i was very happy with that even though i mostly
found my hands sliding forward to the curves, kinda sitting on top of the
brake clamps. on a 1.5 week tour, this started to become quite
uncomfortable
Like Kevin, I have mustache bars and an 80mm dirt drop stem on my
Hunqapillar and love that combination. However, the guy who sold me the
bike had drop bars on it and seemed satisfied with them. I don't know which
drop bars they were, they didn't feel right to me and he agreed to a price
drop i
Mine has Bullmoose. For general riding and trails, I use them.
I run Albas on another bike and love them. I just setup my old Albatross
bar on the Hunq with a Nitto Technomic deluxe using cable quick-connectors.
I can swap the entire cockpit quickly. For a tour or long, non-rough
trail ride
A confirmed drop-bar-on-road-bike kinda guy, I decided to bite the bullet
and build my Hunq per Riv specs, i.e. with a Nitto dirt drop stem and a
moustache handlebar. I thought it looked goofy but, man, is it comfortable
and fun. That set-up handles everything from long rides to pokes around
I'd go with a moose type bar. Bull or Bosco.

I would recommend finding a pair of the MAP/Ahearne
Bars http://www.ahearnecycles.com/shop/ahearnemap-handlebar and putting
them on it. Nice and wide for leverage and security going up and down
hills. Lots of space for controls, bells, grips, PDW Bar-Istas, etc. I've
got them on my Saluki and q
