+1 ... loving the Albatross bar. But call me fickle. The Moustache bar is a close second. And the Bullmoose bar is a decent third and fourth (better on a stilt, but fun as can be "as it comes" for < 3-hour rides). Noodles are also good for shorter-term variety. I never stay in one place too long on them. I do wish they made a 50cm (or even a 52cm!) Noodle, though. Would they be just too flex-y or something?
For me I think it's a longer-term analogue to pedaling without retention. The bike itself is better because I have bar choices. I wonder... if I continue to enjoy "mixing it up" with handlebars this way, perhaps I never totally burn out on any one bar. That'd be cool! I think I may apply this longer-term approach to all of the interface components. Maybe I'll ride a wide sprung saddle sometimes (B67 instead of my B17?). Maybe I'll use wider pedals sometimes (Sylvan instead of my beloved Grip Kings?). Bikes are great!
