how tall are you, and what size frame do you ride? how long are your cranks?

i felt way uncomfortable with track drops on my 50cm frame, with 170 cranks. i felt i was going to knee myself in the throat, and that i was too curled up for my legs to spin properly. so i gave up on drops, until my pretty pogliaghi came along and i got 165mm cranks, and cinelli criterium drops - shaped like track drops, but shallower. now, the drops are the place to be - in the drops, my bike fits me.
