no it's ok , you have to 'go loose ' on the pedals for it to change gear anyway - if you push the shifter but still push cranks hard - it'll wait until you've un weighted the pedals- but really don't try to shift down twice (all way from top to bottom) if you're at speed - i've not had a problem with that and it'll never do it on it's own as top is default. when changing anyway it's pretty smooth but keep legs loose and ready when changing down - i can do full front/ rear cranks sets of these c. 320 - looking into crows foot 3 trailing, 3 leading, and balc / silver mix to highlight the patterns too.
