Well I managed to get over to the dealer and take a closer look at a bike with Campy Chorus (a Serotta). I wasn't able to actually test ride it, but just from working the shifters up and down the cogs...I liked it. If it weren't for my hand issues, I would not hesitate to get Campy for my bike. I even mentioned to my DH, that I thought he would like it very much, too. It felt very intuitive - moving down the cogs by pressing down on the thumb button, moving up the cogs by sweeping the lever up. Very nice! Then they brought out a bike with Ultegra Di2 (a beautiful Cervelo S5...drool!). And after playing with it, moving up and down the rear cog and front ring...it absolutely sealed the deal for me to go with the Di2 on my Seven. Never again will I have to worry about not being able to shift due to painful/numb hands. Plus, the newer Ultegra Di2 setup is so clean-looking on the bike, it's utterly amazing. All internal cable-routing, and I had to ask where the battery-pack was located because I had trouble finding it. I'm so glad this decision is off my shoulders...now I can focus more on the important details such as what color hubs/headset/bar tape to go with.![]()
