I've used integrated drop bar shifters, both Shimano and Campagnololo, on a few 200k rides. The fact that they're comfortable means I don't move my hands around so much, and so they get sore from staying in the same position too much. Obviously this is mainly my bad habit but I haven't been able to learn not to do it. Between bar end shifters and down tube shifters, don't have a strong preference. They have different advantages and different disadvantages.
