Just wondering if anybody knows if any of the pro road racers around the globe use standard pattern race shift?

Also interested in what any of the aussie boys that comment on here use?

Broc Parkes , Max Biaggi and Mat Mladin spring to mind.

jassseee whats the happy hap my man??

I used to use road up until last year.. but i find at PI and certain point on other tracks you can get a little caught out in some lefts. plus race pattern is probably easier to use with a s/shifter.

Pretty sure I read that Vermeulen uses road pattern also. I agree with Jordy about PI, particularly the upshift between 10->11 is much easier with race shift.
