I have been using the Raceface XC Mtn flat Handlebars 25.4mm Clamp 580mm
on my Surly LHT 26in 52cm 2008 with Shimano XT Thumb Shifters 9 Speed and
Avid Speed Dial V-Brake Levers and ODI Rogue Lock-on Grips and I read good review
on the Jones Loop Handlebars and I got good Feedback and Bad feedback on Facebook
and at 1st I did not like do to $125.00 for them! and now I am starting to like them and I
don't like the Trekking (Butterfly) Handlebars but I am now liking the Jones Loop Handlebars
for my Surly LHT 26in 52cm 2008

I put 710 bars on both of my Surly bikes. I appreciate the multiple hand positions and extra real estate for bags, lights, etc. I can also get pretty low on them too if necessary to get out of the wind.

I like the Jones bars but truly enjoy the bar end shifters. Is there any options to get the best of both worlds as I would be interested.

turn the bar end shifters into thumb shifters with the Thumbies from Paul Component Engineering

Some differences of TW/China import vs a California producer .
VO apparently makes 1, shims down to 22.2 , Paulcomp CNC machines 2 different sizes.
