@kati got bored with super functional downtube shifters after using Ultegra 6800 on the carbon plastic fantastic bike, spend ages trying to find out the best way to get decent shifting/braking performance with great reliability and durability.
Turn out 10 speed Campagnolo Veloce and 8 speed Shimano drivetrain work brilliantly (technically Tiagra is 10 speed, but same cable pull as the rest of the Shimano).
Campagnolo Veloce is also cheaper than Shimano Claris, another bonus.
