What set up would lead to this?
The point is, there is no downtube shifter setup that would require
anyone to reach into the wheel. In fact, you aren't anywhere even close
to the wheel. Now perhaps it might seem that way. Does it seem that
you are in danger of reaching into the wheel to retrieve a water bottle?
And I say this as a person who doesn't like, and even back in the day
didn't like downtube shifters.
Fair's fair. It's perfectly fine to say you don't like 'em without
having to point to exaggerated, fancied dangers as a reason for not
liking them. (Same's true WRT people who don't like bar end shifters:
it's OK to not like them just because.)
