i am currently pulling together a shimano dura ace 9 speed groupset and have mechs cassette and brakes.

I was wondering if to save a bit of money and also because they are hard to find, if i could use tiagra shifters instead of dura ace ones.

Would I notice any difference between the two shifters or is it the mechs etc that make the difference?

Thanks, Tom

    The difference is all in the shifters, I'm afraid.

    I bought 9 speed Dura Ace shifters over the summer to build up a bike, but ended up buying a complete bike, so I have no use for them now. I bought them for £130 so open to offers around that. PM me your email address if you are interested and I will email you some photos
