I guess I'm being a little vague. Apologies.

I still haven't installed the 5700 stuff that Bah Humbug sent me but I'd really like to soon. At the moment I'm happy with the fit of the bike and the overall feel of these bars and the Campy levers, but the 5700 levers are definitely from a different era and I'm trying to figure out if putting them on these bars would be way too weird.
