Don't forget about internal resistance and efficiency loss!
/QUOTE]

total resistance as compared to a derailleur set up? I'm thinking an IHG is less; efficentcy loss with a straight chianline I thinking....no. If you want something more efficient with less resistance you'd have to go single speed. Weight is the primary problem I believe?

For a Crit? Weren't the AM, ASC, FC and FM Alloy hubs built primarily for Time Trials and Club racing?

Still it's obvious STI's and derailleurs must have an advantage, mabe its the ability to shift quickly?
