When I was commuting here in WI before retiring, I often had shift issues in cold weather. I would typically still ride down to about a morning of 20F. The bike sat in the cold garage, but heated space at work. I always noticed a difference on the start of the ride home. I feel a lot of it was in the STIs. This was typically my flat bar rapid fire shifters bike. I definitely had to push harder in cold weather.
