The drop is actually more than 1". The seat needs to be raised some yet. Visually is misguided from the picture though. It does have a 7 mm taller head tube than my Look 595, so it will make me a bit more upright though. While on my Look, my back is pretty flat on the drops.

Saddle is not pointed down. It is pretty leveled actually. Funny you spend so much time trying to dissect the picture and can't see the obvious part of the bike raised about 1.5" above the ground on the back As to your other comments, all I can say is that it must be so sad to live with so much jealousy in your life. So sad indeed.
