Thought I was the only one. My brifters experiment lasted fifteen years. It was a huge relief to be done with them. No barcons for me. Just regular dt shifters. And on one bike front shifting by suicide shifter. Best part about that one is the 'safety' contingent simply scatters and shuts up when they see me use it. They don't even try to browbeat me into being just exactly like them.
