Have you decided on the style of bars to get? Tweener bars aka aerosteers are much more "bike-like" than tiller. I've never been able to re-program my brain to be confident with tiller bars. YMMV.
Yes, Schlitter Double J Handlebars, which are very adjustable, as shown here:
I will be using 11-speed XT M8000 rapid fire shifters and hydraulic brake levers for the controls and XT (long cage) rear derailleur, but Ultegra BR-R8070 Flat Mount disc calipers and R7000 105 (160mm) chainset and front derailleur. Gearing will be 11-42 and 50/34.
I will be getting a Thor seat, but there's a choice of two possible suitable styles, with different seat angles - not sure which to go for -
any recommendations?1) Thor Seat Easy Carbon <

Sitting 15°- 35°Whilst I don't want a very upright position, as want to be reasonably aero (for riding with my roadie friends) and also not to put too much "stack" weight onto my lower back, I'm not going to be actually racing either (something like the
Cruzbike Vendetta V20 looks
way too reclined for me!) and do want a good view of traffic etc., so am thinking probably would would somewhere in the middle, but I'm new to all this! Think "endurance", rather than "race". Perhaps 35-40°??
