I like the drops on our Redster (Red Co-Motion Speedster) because of the wide variety of positions that it affords me. Greatly reduces hand/butt fatigue because I can change riding positions as it suits me. When we're speeding by the A riders on downhills, both stoker and I go into the drops to reduce wind resistance. Other than that, it's only a position convenience.

Cheers!
