I apologize if I am steering this thread in the wrong direction, but... FBinNY, I always enjoy reading your posts as they are succinct and very informative, and now that I've read you have never owned or rode Shimano, I am curious: What components do you prefer, and why? Thanks.

A & B level components are comparably good regardless of brand, so decisions are often made based on side issues, ie. the fit and comfort of the brake/shift levers and/or field serviceability. If you've read my posts you might have noticed that I avoid brand recommendations, and prefer to speak to specific features or problems/solutions.
