Thanks for all of the advice! I'm still not sure what STI system I should go for. It appears that the RSX shifters are relatively hard to find (I found only two auctions on ebay for a set), however I think that the RSX shifters are the only option if I decide to go with the 7 speed freewheel. I read somehwere that the RSX shifters were kind of a drag (weak brakes, impossible to service, gunked up easily). Anyone else have any reliable, cost-effective suggestions? Thanks for the help!

Also, I'm not worried about getting in over my head. I'm new to bikes, but I work on cars and like to think of myself as a relatively savvy mechanic.
