I have seen and used it on a friend's bikes. One of the keys to getting really good performance out of Apex is to use very good cables and housing. A local tri shop here uses higher end housing and cables and puts Apex on tons of tri-bikes, says it's a lot cheaper, works just as well, especially with the long routing of shifter cables from aero bars. The white Apex is really nice looking, and I can see it on that Look. I think it would be really snazzy.
