However, I can definitely feel a difference when I pedal. I'm used to being right on top of my pedals and now it feels like I'm pedaling from behind if that makes sense. I don't know if this is good or bad.
now this is confusing me. I've read about this idea of letting go and being able to hover the hands above, but in this thread i have read it should be done on the tops and you are now saying you do it on the drops. I had assumed it would be done on the hoods since that is the position that gets most use. Which is it?
