It did; I have bar ends on mine (better design IMHO) and without taking it down that was about the extent of the looking. The floor lady (whom I think was the owner; first time in this shop) said that the major difference is that a FBRB has Road bike gear 52 tooth on a RB and 42 tooth on a hybrid. So master(s) enlighten weedhooper please.
There you go. Buy a road bike and replace the handlebars. Voila! FBRB.
If you really wanna get froggy, add drop bar ends to your flat bar...
