Well, I ride a 54, so I'm def. on the small side. I've been using bar end shifters but am looking to switch to DT's. Travel break down, shorter cables, less cable housing, etc. are the motivation for me. Anyone looking to move a pair of Dura Ace SL7700's (the straight lever DT specific 9 speed type) please let me know and I'll snatch 'em up asap!
