I have a set of Haven Alu bars on one bike and Haven carbon on the other. Both are just the right sweep/rise for me. The Alu bars are a bit buzzier, but not too bad. I used the Alu bars on a bike for a week in the alps last year and wasn't getting too much pain in the hands after all day excursions. As has been said above, in some ways the shape is as important as the material. The carbon bars are nicer to look at though.
