I have read so much about the benefit of butterfly handlebars (also know as Trekking or Touring Handlebars) that I decided to give them a try. I bought this one for nearly £14 on ebay and I bought yellow and red Fizik Microtex tape to create a harlequim pattern. Now, you may have noticed that the handlebar was not put on its canonical position and the reason is that I want to try projecting the handlebars more to the front because I'm a tall chap and I want to gain a few centimeters. That also allows me to put the saddle a bit more forward too and putting me in a position closer to the one I am when I cycle standing on the pedals, which is much more efficient. I'll try the handlebars in a few different positions before I commit my tape into it and I'll let you know how it went.
