They work well, and I use the 7-speed version of them on my hybrid. I love them. The brake lever is the perfect size and the shifter levers are located very conveniently.
Those do look a lot better than what I have right now. Although... I couldn't help but notice the shifter lever is in the area where the first coupla of fingers would be. Does your hand have plenty of room on the grip? I hate to be so picky here haha... but I just really love having a lot of space. If I was doing a lot of braking then I could just leave my fingers draped over the brake lever for the majority of the ride, but I usually find myself needing a firm grip on the handlebars especially when climbing big hills.
