I had a similar feeling when I went from a drop bar to Alba's. I felt like 
I wanted to sit further back and push the pedals if that makes sense. KOPS 
is something I totally disregard, place your saddle where it feels 
comfortable. In the end I stopped using the Alba's because the position was 
too upright and I wanted a slightly more aggressive position. The Alba's 
are going on the wife's Betty Foy if it ever arrives, so they weren't a 
total waste.
