 when the bottem line shimano componants are properly adjusted they 
 shift great.  What you get in the higher end stuff is better materials
 nicer finish, greater range of gearing (derailure type), and faster 
 shifting.

 Cruiser bikes, commuter bikes, restoration projects and kids low rider  
 bikes.  I live near an apartment complex that has 80% of those living  
 there are 65 and older.  All summer long during the morning and early  
 evening there are lots of the classic cruisers being pedaled around.
 Not everyone wants 14 to 27 (yes 27) speeds on a bicycle.
