Over any year I end up riding a variety of bikes and have no real preference between twist and trigger - both seem totally fine. What do people not like about them?
My hands slip on them when it is raining or hot. On hot days (over 95 degrees) they get greasy. I have to keep a paper towel in my pocket so that I can shift from a lower to a higher gear.
