I''ve tried widely flared drops in the past but they just aren''t my thing. A smaller front wheel or a higher handlebar position also makes drop bars less of a disadvantage. I still have dreams of building a porteur with a 20" front wheel one day. Better link (HTML doesn”t work in the comments):

I plan on using <a href="http://www.63xc.com/mattc/midge.htm" rel="nofollow">midge bars</a> on the porteur. They''re wide with very short and shallow drops, I''m curious how they''ll cooperate with a large load on a front rack. This is exactly what I want a porteur for.
