I have them and used them with Shimano bar end shifters in friction and index mode. They worked fine but the shifting motion takes some getting used to. Not hard, just different. Also, I found that I need to use a stem 1cm shorter than I had been because the shifter is positioned a bit farther forward.
I am building up an early 80's Woodrup (753 frame) and these will be coupled with the IRD thumb shifter levers in friction mode w/ a 7 speed rear and 46/30 crankset. I am hoping the IRD levers make the shifting more intuitive. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
