and that means you stand at least a chance of learning it without conflicts. Are all your other bikes downtube levers you operate with your right hand only? That would, I think, be the best situation since this would be your only real use of the left hand. I know I'd find it completely impossible to learn. I have bar end shifters on everything but the Kogswell Porteur (which has downtube) and the conflict in learned patters would be horrible. I still occasionally suffer from front shifts going the wrong way from all the years I used backwards-front Sun Tour front derailleurs, even though I switched the entire fleet 15 years ago. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
