Yeah, I don't get the angled ones, either. I look at them and can't figure out how they would be comfortable...wouldn't they force a person to have their wrists bent at a weird angle?

We don't really have any multi-sport specific stores. Our favorite LBS has limited tri items for bikes. We have a really nice running store about an hour away, but they seem to offer mostly the clothing end of tri stuff (tri shorts and swimwear), not hardware for bikes.
