I have a question for those of you who have ridden both flat and drop bars on the same bike. When setting up drop bars, I'm considering two primary grip locations, flats and hoods. How has the distance from the saddle for these two points compared to where your mtb bars were? I'm guessing for most people the hoods will be further forward than the mtb grips were. I'm not sure if the flats will generally be closer than the mtb grips or about the same distance.

What has your experience been? I've got my mtb fit dialed in pretty well but want to get a ballpark idea of what I need for a stem before jumping into a drop bar conversion.
