Beautiful! As always.
I ride with the Jitensha/Postino/Pope bars tilted down a bit to up the comfort
level. One possibility is to put some tape on the frontmost bends to add a
climbing position. Also try those Resist Nomads for some bounce for your riding!

Some good advice here. Another top tip for troublesome cloth: soak it in
water before you wrap. It helps it stretch, lay flat (not bunch and kink as
much), and as it dries, it shrinks a bit so it's nice and tight.

Like anything, it depends on which ones you choose Andy. The Ritchey dodads
are sold in singles, so we're talking over $20 a pair, but they are not
even relevant to this discussion!
Inline adjusters are sold in pairs, usually about $8-10. Like these :
