Friction. My wife has indexed. I used to have indexed on my last bike, a Specialized Sirius, that I bought in '91 and gave away in '05 because, since I bought my Atlantis in '03, I was never using it. When I got the Specialized, I thought indexing was pretty nice, and I guess it still is. But when I built up my Atlantis, I went with indexing, and enjoy it a lot. Friction shifting reminds of shifting a manual transmission; it just adds to the overall feel of riding a bicycle like driving a sports car.
