I'll quote an old post I made. I don't lean forward as far now, with the shallow drops. Much better.
I only used the drops on a downhill or with a strong headwind. Then I got some FSA Omega shallow drop bars. Now I use the drops as just another normal hand position. I was really surprised how much difference it made. The Omega bars are around $40, and heavier than my old bars.
