I'd bet on them being a Soma prototype, American Cyclery has some significant ownership overlap with Merry Sales (the distributor for which Soma is a house brand along with IRD)

Looks like fancy customized h-bars.

Shown here with the "Eagle" bar prototype. On the bar we are going to add some real estate to the area in front of the weld so you could mount levers there instead of where it is now. That would allow one to cut the bar down if they want something narrower.

huh. so basically a variation on the Titec J or H bar (originally by Jeff Jones).
I like the forward sweep of the bar before the grip portion, keeps a person from needing a super-long stem.

the grip areas on the Jones bars are at 45 degrees, these look quite a bit more extreme
would guess around 60 degrees, halfway in between albatrosses and joneses
