I've seen plenty of people with about that amount of drop still comfortably using a B-17. If you have the saddle relatively level instead of nose-up, and keep your hips rolled back instead of trying to tuck yourself down all aero-racer style, then you're probably fine. I'm going to venture a guess and say you've probably got long arms, and are more upright than the average rider using a similar bike setup?
