Rode for five and a half hours with lots of climbing today and they were great. Lots of hand positions possible on those shifters which I find really useful for climbing. The comfort isn’t even my favourite thing. It’s the shifting itself. It’s great.
Shifting whilst climbing was better than I thought it would be. I haven’t started to shift used the thumb shifter with my pinky like some people do, but it was no better or worse than Shimano.
The braking is really good. It is the closest to the feeling of hydraulic brakes I’ve found in cable operated rim brakes. Probably a combination of the pads, cables and well machines rims but there’s no friction at all. Feels really good to use. Actual stopping power is really impressive too. Have no concerns in that department whatsoever.

Nice. Be good to hear your thoughts on the levers on longer rides. I can’t get on with Shimano or sram new or old so might have to go back to camp in the future.enjoy
