That's what I was thinking. You can set up your drop bars so the top will be in the same position as a flat bar would be.
I had a friend who did quite well on our club rides with a flat bar roadie, but he eventually got drop bars.
The little time I have spent on the road on flat bars (mountain bikes) has sucked and I wouldn't want to do back to back centuries on them.
