I'm hoping we'd all agree that any style or shape of bar taken to extremes might be silly and even dangerous.

There's a fella on yt that does fixed commutes with tiny dildo bars like that, looks proper uncomfortable

The absolute legend that is Heinz Stücke, and more importantly his dandy steed, also belongs here among the sweat. The modern leper of the touring world, who never quite caught on to the more gear more gooder, but he knew to trust a 3 speed IGH!

For anyone interested in more about the madman

And later in his wonderful explorations which has spanned such a large amount of kilometers its almost unreal, he became a lover of the Brompton, and it served him for more than 68,000km.

He is one of the big inspirations in my own 3 speed journeys. Him and this little groups of folks reviving 3 speed touring in the UK, I can't remember their name but yeah. I think it's lovely when folk take something humble but well manufactured and put it to good use
