Very quick digression here if I may... Cataboo, what handlebars do you have? I'm looking for ones with a flattish platform on the top but not having much luck with Google - maybe I'm not using the right words to describe it to bring up meaningful search results. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your patience. I'll return you all to your normal service now.

I tried the 3T Ergonova Team in one bike and *loved* it. Also curious about Cataboo's handlebars.
