Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Changing from Campy to Dura Ace - Reach Change?

I recently switched from Campy Ergo's to Shimano STI's. It was a whole gruppo change. One thing I noticed is that the shifters seem a little further away now. Have other people who have changed noticed the same?

Duh. Come to the light my son:








We await you at the Our Lady of Dura Achee Chapel. We will cast off your Campy and pray together.
