I read and hear a lot about people who never or rarely use their drops, staying on the hoods. Surely one of the advantages of drop bars is the change in position? To me it feels much more solid when in the drops, my hands are 'hooked in' and I have access to gears and brakes, what's not to like?
Would a lot of cyclists benefit from raising their drops to get more use out of them, possibly combined with bending their elbows more? Lots of straight-armed riders out there (including me although I'm new to drops and working on it).
