Do a skid!
I am with Windy. TT looks a little short. try pulling the stem up 5cm - there will be a mark on it to show you minimum insertion.. as BMMF said a longer stem would work, somewhere around 100mm - 120mm.
Best make your mind up on the handle bars first. drops might not help the comfort and french style handle bars should only be used with care. you will need to develop some neat facial hair and start wearing jackets ala european style. unless you are a teacher, then they are just fine.
