I definitely wanted to be more on the racier end but with keeping with some classic looks. I never thought about it but DT shifters might be a fantastic idea. They are very light and more classic than putting on brifters. (I didn't want to do barcons). 100% going to do a compact double. I'm not sure what to do with the FD and RD. But DT shifters???
