No, there is a slight drop between the top of the handlebars and the hoods. Not bad and I don't mind it at all. It is still flatter than my old Shimano setup. My handlebar is a Salsa Short & Shallow. I needed 38 bars and these were great. However, I am waiting, hoping that SOMEDAY someone will make carbon bars for those of us who need something narrower than a 40...
What kind of bars do you have now?
