How do you like those shifters?
I really enjoy them, they allow me to be on the hoods most of the time (and I like that). But, I cannot compare them to modern brifters because I have never had a set: went from downtube to these.
I was in the same boat. I looked at those and almost pulled the trigger. But then i found a used set of Shimano sora in really good condition and gave them a shot. I liked them for a while, but just decided to go back to downtube for various reasons.
