Playing the starchy-collar viewpoint, this takes Frame integrity too far off center. Once, bikes had to be capable of leaning at a 25-30deg with a pedal at BDC. Reason was safety and this was the 70's and 80's.

You never tried it though I take it? I've been thinking about one of these - http://beercomponents.com/. Seems like it would add a decent amount of drop.
Nah, never did. Those look kind of interesting. I couldn't find how much offset you'd get out of them though. That guy is trying to run a business off of blog formatting......... Kind of annoying.
