I spend most of my riding time on the bars but am trying to change that.
I also have one bike that is 5 to 6 inches below the saddle because the frame is at my smaller limit so I raised the saddle to the max spec, like 6 to 7 inches above clamp and the bars are right at the headset. Its been hard for me to ride comfortable on this bike but it is forcing me to be more flexible.
Why? I'm comfortable either way and spend quite a bit of time in the drops on my road bike. Are you saying that 4" drop isn't low enough to be aero?

Or are you talking to OP with that?
