I decided I wanted to try fixed with drops and modern brake levers. I bought some tektros and cheap bars. The bars, however, don't make a full half circle. Is it correct* that I should make the top flat and horizontal including up the brake levers? Even if it means the ends of the bars angled a bit toward the ground?
