I simply said that they aren't as comfortable as some other options, like a nice aerobar for instance.
I'm not overweight at all, but if you would have a bad back you would agree with me that drops aren't comfortable.
More true words were never spoken - try older age, bad back, carpel tunnel, tendonitis and arthritis everywhere, a bad knee, and probably more forgotten - make Hybrids, and their upright and spine relaxing geometry, a godsend to those of us who still love riding; but lack the requirements to ride in the drops for very long.
