I suppose I shouldn't be posting on this thread as I tried the DCT recently and liked it even after 45 years of normal foot change. However, on the day that I tested, it did have one shortcoming for me. When riding briskly on backroads in the ordinary drive mode (which I preferred) I found that I did not have enough engine braking when approaching tight bends at speed. In such situations the way around this was to use the manual downshift paddle to compensate. I accept that this shortcoming could have been alleviated somewhat by using the more sporty mode, but that mode was holding on to the gears too long for me when accelerating.
