She wants to leave her shifting levers on?!

should just be happy she has a eddy merckx
but in away i do understan the stubs are pretty ugly really
i have the same frame sitting in front of me like that and it does bug me as well.
depends on the levres though i think

Keepin' everything Campy that I can as who knows, I may just get a real single-speed & learn how to use tools by replacing my derailleur.
