Aren't Campagnolo left-hand brifters non-indexed somehow? Something to do with trimming, am I remembering it wrong?

If not, if you have a double crankset, you might not even need the Shiftmate, I've got a Gipemme (think I spelt that wrong) FD which wasn't even intended to run with indexed shifting being operated by a Shimano RSX double brifter. Since you only need 2 positions up front (plus one for trimming if you want it) it isn't such a big issue. At least that's my experience, I may just have gotten lucky.
