I read somewhere that the proper BB drop range was 8.0 - 8.0 cm. Somewhere in that range anyway.
One of my early frames had 7.7 cm of drop and I managed to hit the pedal a time or two going through corners. I'm sure a more diciplined rider than I could manage just fine with 8 cm of drop, but people like me get along better with a little more clearance.
