Regarding going to drops...
Of course it's up to you but I went the other way. I found in the traffic I frequent, the drops were a hindrance. Because of the lower vision level I had, I spent most of the time on the top of the bars. I used auxiliary levers on my drops when in traffic, but found going to flat bar the easiest and safest solution. If you end up going to drops, consider the aux. levers when you convert. Many will tell you they look crappy, but I think safety first. Just my thoughts
Steve.
Suicide levers?
