All the flat bar lever clamps I have seen are for 22.2mm (7/8") bar diameters. Drop bars typically are much larger in diameter. Andy
I found two drop bars that have 22.2mm grip diameters: Pure Cycles "Pure Fix Drop Bars" and Solé Bicycles "Classic Drop Bars" (I can't post links just yet). I'm not entirely sure how I would get the Deore XT shifters/brakes installed onto the bar (must they slide on via the bar ends?) but at least there are two products out there.

Reason: Misleading statement about the width of the drop part of the drop bars
