I took a 54 Feather for a spin the other day and it felt really comfortable, at least as far as leg extension. When I got into the drops I felt way too hunched over and just awkward. Would I wanna go with the 53 or 55 Kilo if I want a slightly more upright position?

Also, I'm assuming that the bar tape comes off easily and I can position the brake(s) closer to the stem?
Not the Feather, but I have a Classic Track and had the same issue with feeling hunched over when I first got the bike. I flipped the stem and got bullhorn bars and H'dTFU and I find the bike comfortable now.
