Depends a whole lot on how fit your core is. What feels like an aggressive drop when I have a weak midsection feels downright cruiser bike comfy when my midsection is super strong from weight lifting and kettlebell workouts. Same bike, same person, same geometries, different ab and back strength = different definitions of aggressive and conservative.

After a long layoff due to a serious injury I had to flip the stem and add a stem riser to do my rides. My midsection just could not hold me at the previously perfect set up.
