The demo car has push forward = change up, and I thought that was the standard, but on the EVO ECOTY CD thingy I noticed it's reversed. What is the standard? Surely it gets confusing swapping around.

Well, on road bikes pushing down (like pushing forward) changes down, and pulling up (like pulling the lever back) changes up. So the "standard" Radical set up feels a bit non intuitive. But apparently race bikes are the other way around anyway. I'll probably get used to it pretty quickly anyhow I hope!
