Yeah, well, no. The 1050 didn't pull enough cable per click, Pretty sure I can make the Exage work. I'm no stranger to brifters, as I wrench them on customer bikes all the time. Just never owned any.

I may have to resurrect some 7-sp wheels and give them a whirl.

Someone posted here over the summer that they were coming. I've been watching the J&B updates in the store. As soon as they were listed i shopped around a bit and found them at Nigara via Amazon. $88 bucks shipped.

The thumb lever is lower than the Soras, but still not the wide pad of Ergos.
