Since time marches on it's hard to make a direct comparison. 7 speed rsx was bottom of the sti barrel and therefore the relative equivalent of todays Sora. 8 speed rsx was essentially rebadged 8 speed 105 and was the bottom end of the lineup for a few years right after the introduction of 9 speed stuff.

so would you say that the 8spd rsx would be as good or better than sora? maybe as good as tiagra? or is that pushin it??
