Can anyone nerd it up for me and tell me where these older Shimano groupsets comapre to newer Shimano in terms of cost and performance. Obviously newer stuff is more technologically advanced etc. I'm not asking for a review, just a this one cost more than thatone but probably less than a 105 did in it's day. I'm not being very coherent.... Exage, 600, STX, RSX, RX100 an dany other ones you can think of. Wondering how to 'rate' these when I come across them. Cheers
