Congrats on your purchase. Say slowly now, Col-na-go C-59 with Dura-Ace or S-Ram- Red. Now after you have washed your mouth out, say slowly, Col- Na- Go, C-59, Fatta in Italia, thats Made in Italy, with Cam-pag-nolo. You will be flogged publicly for putting DA or Red on. You will however be praised even if you put Chorus or Record on. Chorus in itself is as good as DA. Shimano or SRAM on a CLX or M10 maybe but not a C59. Remember Campy wears in, everything else wears out.

Imo the shape of the DA7900 shifters has the worst ergonomics of the 3, plus that was Shimano's first try at routing the shift cables along the bar - it was a good try, but not great. Go Red with a crank from an independant manufacturer - something you can polish the paint off from, like FSA.
