so i put the drops on it last weekend, but used crosstop levers instead of aero brakes. i used the stock stem but flipped it for a -15 degree angle. i LOVE the drops! so much more than the straight bar the Soho came with. however, i am switching to a 130mm stem soon because the compact nature of the frame doesn't give enough room to really stretch out in the drops.

still, next to the Brooks seat, this is easily the best upgrade i've ever done to the Soho S. It's also making me want to try track drops next.
