Another thing I don't like about double-tap is it requires too

got one cog left and hit the shifter, it drops you down a cog --
kind of the opposite of what you wanted.

That's an excellent point. I've been bagged by that on a couple of occasions.


Yeah but it's still just a quick click and a "**** me I'm toast" to get
back to where you were. I don't find it a significant issue. But then
again, I'm not climbing the Pyrenees or something.

Like I said, though, I don't really have a preference between SRAM and
Shimano. Both work pretty well. I guess I like the drop three option
when I'm doing hills that are slightly larger than rollers but it's not
a deal breaker.
