I'd rather ride tiagra any day over anything with DT shifters, but I'm sure there are purists who would be offended.
Downtube shifters can be OK, depending on your position. I noticed they're not so good with upright handlebars.
Yes, I've posted pictures of the bike in C&V many times. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to take
good pictures of it, and it's especially hard to capture the frame's color.
Here are most of the pictures I have on hand. Some are from before the downgrade.
