No, that's OK. It is about what I thought. Anything over 60 degrees more or less requires two fingers to move the lever, or for the hands to come off the bars.
It's no reflection upon your beautiful build, but it's just my personal preference when it comes to shifters. I don't understand why IGH thubmies don't have a larger barrel for more cable pull for each throw.
