It may be in part to that's what I'm used to but they really hit a sweet spot for my riding.
I like these too, and have them on a couple of my builds. At $21 a pop, they are an excellent bargain.

My favorite, of course, is the SOMA Oxford bar in black. Those run about $65 each, though. I may go with the Sunlite Elson steel bar for my next MTB/ATB build. Those ring up at $31, less than half of the Oxfords, and the little added weight for steel is negligible in that application.
