    Thanks!
    What bike you planning on putting these on? I have them (the old style) on my Bacchetta Giro, and they work great . But, I've been told by several people, including the B boys that they won't work on superman bars due to reach and angles.
    But, I guess I lucked out - honestly they work great. But, but, you might double check before laying out the cash.

    The ICE B1. I love the bar end shifters on my Bacchetta Ti Aero 24. I can't imagine using a twist/rapid fire on it due to the angle. I think it would be super awkward.
