I stuck a Jones bar on my single speed mountain bike and totally love it. The 45 degree bend is awesome and the bar gives quite a few different hand positions. I really like the loop area for a small front bag too. The 710 version of the loop bar has a lot of real estate so you can ride normal with your hands on top of the brake levers or scoot far back for a pretty upright position.
Haven't tried the billie but it doesn't flair out as much as the Jones. On a bike meant for off road riding, I would rather have the flair. My Appaloosa has Chocos which basically come straight back. I like that for greenway riding and more casual/touring stuff.
