Gear Talk / Trekking Bars?

« on: December 06, 2009, 11:00:37 am »

My wife and I got back into bicycling this year, we bought a couple of hardtail MTB's, thought we'd be riding mostly off road but have decided we really prefer paths/trails and road riding. We've converted over to thinner road type tires, added racks, etc. and even "extentions" to our straight bars but I've been looking at "Trekking Bars". Has anyone here changed over to Trekking Bars?  If you have let me know what you think about them. We still do some of the "dirt paths", in our area (Pikes Peak Greenway and Santa Fe Trail) so we didn't want to go to full drop bars, thanks any help would be greatly appreciated.
