Help With Finding Riser Bars for Narrow Gripping

I recently converted a drop bar bike--now sporiting 2" riser bars. Because I prefer 52-54mm width, I can't get the brake lever and shifter to mount on the "straight" part of the bar.

It makes for a contorted shifting/braking setup. I need a riser bar that quickly rises up to 2" from the stem clamp area. Anyone know where I can find bars with this spec? Thanks in advance!
