Better Handlebars for My Hybrid?

[Blueberry]

I really like the Bike Friday H bars. http://store.bikefriday.com/popup_im...29f1a6e53731a6
They're designed to be packable (so they split), but this does not interfere with their use on a regular bike. DH has them on his Trek 730. We chose to change out the shifters, and he kept the same brakes.

Just another option

I think they're cool too -- but aren't they awfully wide? When I was building my Bike Friday, I looked at them, but I decided they would only work for a guy or a woman with wide shoulders. I ride 38 cm road bars, so I figured they'd hurt my shoulders. Not sure what size wackyjacky is, but just something to consider...

Hmmm.....interesting, Emily.

I actually find the ones DH has to be a little narrow for me. They're the same width as his drop bars (ISTR), but they come in 46, 48 and 49. I just measured the H-Bars - the width is at the very bottom - so the actual hand positions are all quite a bit further in. I don't think they'd size like "normal" bars.
