As has been said, nothing to stop you converting a drop bar bike.
There are not many ready made drop bar ebikes, but Giant have recently entered the market.
This Bike Radar test is worth a read.
The hacks did manage to overheat some of the bikes on the Alpine-style climb, and cook the brakes on the way down.
But I wouldn't worry too much about that, I suspect they tried to climb in too high a gear, which some crank drive ebikes don't like.
These guys descend like demons as you know, so I doubt a recreational rider would either do such a long descent or attack the descent as aggressively.

That bike looks good Pale Rider! At least i now know you can get drop bars.
