My Dia Compe ones are mounted on barcon pods and I am shifting a 10 speed 
cassette. It works smoothly but the arc of the lever is really significant. 
I would guess with my challenged thumbs it is a bigger deal and I can 
imagine if I used the shifter on the downtube then that action would be 
much more efficient = the way god intended the levers to be used.
