  • If you can have a shot of each it would help you make a decision. I have found its a really personal preference. My old bike ran 105 and you could almost feel the cable stretching puling it into gear whereas the Athena i now run fires in like a bolt.

    my preference is the Athena as i think the hoods are far more comfortable than what Shimano offer and i prefer the instant hit of the gear change.
