yes. so what, your kind of limited with bar options anyways. Not all bars and brifters have to look like they do in the pictures. You realize they just do that to make them look better, which usually means they are out as far as they can reach.

fsa k wing compact might give you some more leeway. they have a curved profile that works in many bar angle and brifter positions and the drops angled out is very winning.
