So after riding the dirt drops on the road for a month it was my first time using the drops as they were intended, and they are awesome. Very easy to steer, shift and reach the brakes, climbing was great as was control down the hills. In all I was very, very pleased with the ride. Tektro cantis were fine as well, never felt out of control while decending. Got a few double take looks in the parking lot at the end of the ride too.
