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

shimanos .... r540 on one and most recently 105. both were considerably cheaper. i think the 105 were a good deal at Ł30ish and those ultegras you linked are at Ł110.

I got mine a few years ago. I believe they were cheaper even ordering from a U.S. retailer, so the PBK price might not be that great a deal in this case.
