Default Transition wood to carpet at top of stairs?

Hi,

I want to put in 5/8" solid wood flooring in my upstairs loft area. I
would like to leave the carpeting on the stairs and need to transition
the wood at the top of the stairs. I used a wood transition downstairs
for the transitions into the carpeted closets but this type of
transition seems to be a little too high to be comfortable at the top
of stairs.
Is there a more comfortable way to transition? Normally, I suppose I
could add a strip of similar wood that is sloped or ripped at a more
comfortable angle. The only problem is that the floor is carbonized
bamboo so its kind of hard to match. Does anyone have ay other ideas?

Thanks, Chris
