Sorry, yeah, i forgot that R8070 was available now - the ONLY reason i went with the DA9170 was because ultegra wasn t out yet.
R785 are a nicer shifter look and shape than etap - had the DA not come out by the time i needed them id have stuck with R785 (i actually bought R785 as first choice at the time of first buying the frame - by the time the paint was done and cured DA9170 had arrived!)

Cheers, chaps.
@Dick , I’d be coming from R785 shifters, so it’d be much the same shape as eTap. If hood shape is an issue (going to see in store), I’d move to new Ultegra instead of DA, if I didn’t go for eTap. If Ultegra, I’d probably go P2M with Rotor instead of Quarq (NG Eco), @danstuff !
I’d actually been using Keo Max 2 for years and liked them, but they don’t have the ‘solid’ base like the Blades so don’t have quite the same issue you’re talking about. Shall have a little more of a think...
