A bar-end shifter question
Why do I see a lot of touring bikes with bar-end shifters on a road handlebar? Is there some special touring purpose to this that I don't understand.
I have to say I like my ergo levers and the shifting/braking togetherness I get, I just don't see the point other than retro-grouchiness.
Please enlighten me.
