Sorry this is slightly OT, but hearing about tight glutes and hamstrings got me thinking --- I ride my Roadini with the longest possible leg extension, it's always been how I set up my bikes but I'd never had drops before, and I've been getting terrible cramps in my legs on anything above 40 or 50 miles... In the experience of those above who've dropped their saddles, does it reduce cramping?
More on topic, I'm also 6'1" with long legs ~91 pbh and ride a 61 roadini with a 100 stem that I just switched to 70 and I now wish was 60 but it works pretty well, I would recommend tilting your seat slightly down (very slightly) to reduce the amount you feel you're stretching forward. It may be obvious to others but, being new to drops, I rode with a saddle that had my hips tilting back and stretching my back out even more for too many rides.
