I thought I wanted to go back to drop handlebars after owning a few hybrid bikes. I bought a Kona Sutra which I really like but I have come to the realization that I don't like drop handle bars because of the straight arms and the weight on my wrists. I raised them up 2" with a stem extender and I still find my self in an uncomfortable position with limited positions for my hands and the lower position is too low for extended periods of time. I mostly ride on roads but would like to still be able to go on trails near our house. The handlebars I am considering are: Choco, Tosco and the Albatross. I think if I lowered the stem to it original height and had a bar with some rise I could get some slant on the end grips. I would like to try the Tosco but its out of stock for months, so I am leaning towards the Albatross which I can get now. I want to reuse my bar end shifters but I think I will get smaller brake levers to mount half way down the straight bars. Anybody converted a Kona Sutra gravel bike to Riv Alt. Bars?
