To ride? I really like it. The drops aren't in the so called correct position (i.e, "bar blocking the view of the hub") on mine, the hub is behind the bar, because I just used the existing stem. So going off the rule of thumb this would mean the handlebars are too high or too far forward, but with my hands in the drops, and my arms pretty straight it's actually a more relaxed, upright position. I think, at least, I obviously haven't seen myself on the bike and I also ride with a huge rucksack that must effect my position.
