I have a Sam Hillborne and went with barends for it, but I honestly prefer downtube shifting because of the ease of setup and lack of shifter cables on the bars. The sloping toptube argument seems like a good one for lack of bosses, but I think with my next bike, which will either be a Roadeo or a Hilsen, will be setup with downtubes. I still really love the Hillborne though, even with the shifter cables up on the bars.
