Thanks. It's not an Albastache bar, though, just a regular Nitto mustache bar from the old days.
The whole Campy Ergo 11 to Shimano 9 index-matching thing, once I learned about it, solved a number of problems and created some interesting opportunities: • Road levers natively matched to cantilever brakes (Campy CX) for proper leverage and modulation (tricky to do with Shimano stuff back then). • Cassettes with more than 9 cogs weren't clearing the end of the chainstay cleanly. • Ergo brake levers don't pivot in like STI, essential on a mustache bar where IN becomes DOWN (with STI you'd risk shifting every time you hit the brakes). • Placement of the Ergo thumb lever is just right on the bottom side of the mustache bar. • Reasonably clean cable routing.
