Thanks for the help. Do you mean too far down the drop bar or do you mean the entire bar is too far forward due to the length of the stem?

As stated in OP, I don't have any experience on a road bike and was asking for those that do what the starter placement was for the levers. I understand that preference will come into play but if I don't understand what the ergonomics of the lever is designed for (hands spend most time on the horns, where's people's hands usually are on the bar when braking), I will spend a lot more time trying to figure it out.
