Let me preface this post by saying that I never rode a bike with Campy, only Shimano..
I have ordered the new '04 Gray Centaur group for my new bike (sight unseen). Today I was in a bike shop and saw bike with this group. It looks really cool in the new gray!
However, I notice that the shifters have a pedal and thumb clicker for down shifting, kinda like Shimano Sora..
I assumed it will operated like Shimano where the shifting is done by pressing the little Paddle under the brake lever, and the brake lever itself.. How do you downshift from the drops??? Can you reach the thumb clicker from the drops?
