Lots of good info on this thread and in particular the point about looking at the whole setup, not just the type of bars, to combat hand pain. I use Albastache bars on my upright-est bike and the overall setup makes for a very comfortable ride. I also use the widest saddle I have ever used (Brooks B17) and have it tilted upwards the most I have ever done. As with my more aggressive setups, my upright cockpit allows elbows to be kept bend and hands to habitually rotate positions on the bars. As allready discussed on this thread, there are several pluses on this setup but there is also one minus and that is loss of speed for the same input of power, all else equal, and although speed quite possibly is insignificant to you at your current predicament it may become a consideration later on. Just another data point to consider along with the rest.
