I'm not sure I have the right measurement, so I marked it out in the attached image. That distance is about 3.5 inches, both places.
Interestingly, the minimum distance is the same on my other bike where I can't reach the brakes from the drops. But when I'm riding that bike in the drops, my hands and reach don't fit the bar right and I end up much lower The end result is that I can't reach the brakes because I'm not reaching on the minimum distance.
Oh, I bet that just muddied the waters more, didn't it.
