Am I missing something?
And thank you to Zinn and the tandemer with the question...Hav tried several times with no sucss to get tanem specific question answered.
From reading the article, I understand that the left hand road Di shifters are set for two chainings. It would shift either up or down, but not down-down or up-up.
