When jumping you can shift into another gear without realizing it, at least until you get the hang of it.

Bike Setup:
Rincon SE (7spd) XT R-Der, LX FR-Der, Thompson Setapost, WTB SSTX Saddle, Specialized Stem, Clipless Pedals, Specialized 1.90 Rocksters FR & R) Magura Louis FR & R Brakes
Bottom Line:
The bike works extremely well with this setup, shifts are positive and fast. I have no use for more than 7 speeds on the local trails so this setup is ideal for me.
If I upgrade though, I'll likely go to 9.0Sl Shorties with 8 speed setup.
The shifters work great though.
