I have to replace the handle bars on my bike and I was thinking about flipping a regular set of handle bars over on the riser so they would sit a little lower and be more like clipons... U was wondering if anyone had ever done this or if they feel this is just a ridiculously stupid idea... Lol so give me your feedback guys! 

doesn't work very well to be honest. i tried it out, the angles just aren't very natural. check out some suburban machinery bars, they'll suit your needs perfect

many have done it....results and milage may vary based on personal ergonomics...make sure you have a dremel handy for zipping off the locating pins for the switchgear if you go this route!
