...I am conflicted. There is a part of me that feels indexed shifting was the beginning of the end for the classic criterium bike. Yet another part of me so much loves Shimano indexing that he has either maintained it or installed it on a number of his own bicycles. Sometimes, I am shamed by this massive bit of hypocrisy on my part. And I am not easily shamed.
I even have a couple of brifterized bikes, that came to me that way, built up from nice custom frames, by guys like Davidson. I know I could convert them to DT shifters easily enough, but am too lazy to do so. This thread has only served to remind me what a terrible person I am.
