Yes. The Ritchey Butano bar does have 12 degrees drop flare/sweep. That seems to put my wrists in a more comfortable position than straight drops. Note the Surly Truck Stop has a 30mm rise from the clamp section, a benefit if you want to be more upright. FWIW, the Ritchey bar has about 20mm more drop than the Truck Stop. Edit- just noticed you want a downward angled stem. That will look wrong/contradictory with the rise of the Truck Stop.
