I sold mine years ago, but I can put in a word of praise for them. I found them the easiest way to do double shifts: Kellys #1, then dt shifters, then bes. However, I found bes to be best for off road -- bumpy -- shifting.
I found I could shift as easily from ramps/hoods (these were Nitto 185s, so very short ramps) as hooks. I had mine set up with old Record shifters on a faux half stepped Riv commuter, 13-32 7 speed, half stepping the middle 5 cogs (15-17-20-23-26) and using the outer and inner as downhill and bailout gears respectively; 91" to 35" range. Cruising was in cog #3, just shifting back and forth between 70" and 65" with the left shifter. Very nice.
