Hello All, I am thinking about the setup of my Hunqapillar which will wear Bullmoose bars and Paul thumbies with shimano bar-end shifters. Is a rapid-rise rear der the best choice in this situation?
Assuming the thumbies will be indexed and positioned on top of the bar, will I be able to flick the right lever forward? If so, wouldn't I want that motion to be a shift to a larger cog? If I can only shift the lever in one direction without taking my hand off the bar, wouldn't I want that to be a downshift? When I am looking for an easier gear (ie. riding up hill in the wrong gear), I'm thinking I won't want to take my hand off the bar. For this reason, is a top- normal der more appropriate? I haven't used thumb shifters in YEARS so if hands must come off the bar for all shifts, then I guess rapid rise is the way to go.
