Campagnolo gravel bike4/5/2023 Bulging out initially, they’re quick to access from the hoods, while the swoop inwards makes them easy to reach from the drops. With their curved contours, the levers make it very easy to grab a handful in a hurry. Perhaps quite a basic point, but those have been perennial issues of SRAM’s DoubleTap (opens in new tab) and Shimano’s mechanical STI levers (opens in new tab), respectively. Keeping the two shifters and brake lever completely separate in this way meant that I never mixed up the shifts or accidentally pulled on the brakes. But the sensation of the shift itself was nice and tactile, perhaps the best way to describe it is as being halfway between a plunger and a ratchet – very satisfying. I felt its surface area could benefit from being a little larger, it was sometimes a bit of a faff to actuate it – particularly when wearing gloves. To shift back up the cassette, there’s a single lever behind the brake paddle.
