flight deck computer
Quote | Reply
Anyone have experience with the wired computers on some of the old shimano brifters? I'd never seen or heard of such a thing until a got a pair in the mail from another ST'er.

I don't want the computer and wires, but I feel silly cutting it off. What does it do beyond tell you what gear you're in? Is it worth keeping?

I use a wireless one but I'm not in love with it. The wireless setup is pretty clean since all you have is the front wheel sensor. The biggest disadvantage is no rear wheel pick up so its useless on a trainer. The gear indicator is kind of cool though. My suggestion would be not to use it so you don't get addicted to the gear indicator. I would have gotten rid of it long ago if not for that.

I have a flight deck and I like it. The gear indicator is surprisingly useful, but I think the most useful feature is the buttons on the hood.
