Hmmm, it's not great is it from Shimano?! Well I've put around maybe 5000miles on the groupset and not had any issues with the right shifter to date, although I was struggling to get the indexing sorted and it doesn't always shift first time anymore to the point where you can vary the amount you move the lever to get it to shift almost like a friction shifter. Shouldn't be like this with new cables and I've set up enough geared bikes to know this doesn't feel right overall.
Does anyone know of any issues with the new 11 SPD 5800 groupset? Is Ultegra fundamentally different or the same but more expensive?
Must admit it's got me looking at SRAM...
