I'm about 50/50, hoods and drops between three bikes with three different fits - a road bike that's about perfect, a single speed that's a bit more aggressive (smaller frame and lower stack), and a gravel bike that's a bit less aggressive.

I probably end up using the drops just a bit more on the road bike. I'm more likely to climb in the drops on the road bike or gravel bike than the single speed, and more likely to hit rollers in the drops on asphalt vs. gravel. Always drops for descending, unless on ice.

Tops? Never.
