- Somewhere wet & hilly in NW England.
Old bike 105 5700 vs new bike 105 5800.
5700
Shifting down from the big ring to small ring took the FD as far inboard as possible. If I needed to trim following a shift from large to small ring (ie when in small ring and smallest cogs) a slight shift of the big lever effected a slight outboard shift of the FD.
5800
Shifting down from the big ring to the small ring takes the FD into the 5700's trim position as above. A slight flick of the small lever now trims to the 5700's as far inboard as possible position.
Thought I was going nuts until I read the online 'dealer' manual which clearly shows this.
What's the reasoning for this logic change?
