In my garage:
1978 Nishiki Superbe (friction DT)
1987 Davidson Challenge (friction DT)
1987 Miyata 912 (STI)
1993 RB-1/7 (Barend indexed)

I'm just saying that for me, I'll choose the STI-equipped bike 75% of the time I want to ride. The remaining 25% of the time, I'll ride one of the others, just to refresh my memory as to why I like STI so much. Again, just my opinion on this.
