I have to disagree on this. I've ridden with ergons for a bunch of years and I found that once you figure out the slight downward angle (my preference) then it's pretty much set. I've used them on three bikes and I find therm to really reduce pressure points.

until I got my first pair (5 model with long barends) with a used bike, I didn't think they were worth the money, but I'm sold now.
On my Jones bars I don't have the gc1 made for swept bars, maybe should have, but the regulars work well for me...But I don't have big hands so easy to angle my palm comfortably.

I wouldn't use bar end models on swept bars, the bar ends could catch on things as they will stick out to the sides.
