Nice setup. That will make a good rider for someone. Since you flip a lot of bikes, I was wondering if you find much resistance from buyers to bikes with bar end shifters. I love them myself, but with brifters so universal these days, I don't find many other people who like them. Often people don't even know what they are. I've even had people ask me if mine were brake levers.

I would think it would be kind of a dilemma. The cost of adding brifters would make the bike too expensive, but the lack of them would make it hard to sell. What is your experience.
