As I look through that link in the first post :

I'm drawn to #14 the Lenker X-ACT Randonneur Vario Handlebar.
Has anyone ever seen these take-apart drop bars in person? I only see
little bits of info online and its all
I mount my Rohloff shifter on the quill stem on my Bilenky with Albatross
(recently converted to Bosco) bars, but not in the way it's shown in photo
#4, where it sticks out on one side. I just insert the quill through the
shifter before it goes into the headset/steerer tube. I don't have a

I haven't tried this but I am surprised that folks run anything other than
the Cane Creek or the Bertoud setup. I run my Rohloff on a flat handlebar
and takes quite a bit of twisting force to shift. If I had to take my
hands off the bars, I'd probably be wobbling all over the place.
I have the CoMotion shifter that comes in 31.8mm to attach close to the stem
(on 31.8 bars of course). I really like this one, its sturdy and offer a really
good grip. Maybe useless if you're thinking of a bike with quil stem tho...

Andrew,
Some years ago I ran a Rohloff on my Hilsen and tried both the Hubbub (#2)
and the bar-end for quill stem (#11). I preferred the bar-end method. I
don't use the drops that much, so the quill was much closer to my hand.
It's also less expensive and would be a good place to start
I remember seeing this setup on Flickr. Cruise through his photos to see
the complete bike.
