Flow along curve

Hi, I am trying to flow these objects around a curve (tried flow along surface too), but when flowed the bottom part of the cylinders become oval. How can I resolve this? thanks

Hello - flow in two shots - for the cylindrical objects set Rigid=Yes. I would keep those cylinders separate until they are flowed , then Union.

thanks, I will try it! (I had tried rigid before, but they were joined…so maybe it does not work like that)
