I don't mind the look at all and am tempted at times to go real vintage, but the downtube shifters scared me sometimes back in the '80's, still scare me now - Nothing spookier than downhill twisties and trying to pre-shift for the right gear when the bottom corner is approaching ......
Good for social cruises though. Zero maintenance.
