Where do Shimano R600 and R700 components such as chainsets fit into the normal,Tiagra,105,Ultegra hierachy?
I`ve seen various R600 and R700 chainsets online at tempting prices but was wondering how these compare with the normal Shimano offerings?

I think R600 is nominally Ultegra.
However, I have some long drop R600 brakes and they are more similar to my 105 brakes than my Ultegra brakes.0 -
I think R600 = 105, R700 = Ultegra0

So any I see are basically old stock?
Is a new Tiagra as good as an R600.? They are priced similarly online?
Anyone know relative weights of the 2?2006 Giant XTC
