I tried your suggestion, I think i know what was the problem, when i pedalled on drops, my knees were not in a plane above pedals, my torso was too low.

This thread is also a very good example and warning, for everyone, not to follow blindly advices from ppl from internet, especially whose (only?) experience is based on analyzing pictures of pro riders (excuse me for being harsh, i'm not sure about other credentials),
I tried your suggestions, it didn't work, i had a knee pain for few days. Your main response was basically 'you're doing it wrong, hundreds of pros cannot be wrong', instead of at least trying understand the problem....

Well... at the end, that's the reason we go to bike fitter, not to hurt yourself, and to get an advice from professional, right ?

On last few days I had again amazing rides and climbs again, so if you see a cyclists with not-so-pro-position on a Tarmac, it could be me, but at least know that he is happy

thanks Frank for understanding.
