I had the shifting adjusted so that it shifted a bit slow on a couple of cogs going from large to small. If i would have adjusted for crisper shifting small to large then it would not shift large to small. The SRAM shifts both ways exceptionally well.
Nice to know about the balky shifting with the Miche cassette.

Since the SRAM has 27/24/21/19 are the ratios the same as the 12-27 Shimano cassette?
