Message: I know that this site should really be called MOUNTAINBIKEmagic, but Campagnolo is better represented than Shimano at any road event. I think that Campag do make better road components. The Ergolevers have a separate lever for changing up, rather than using the whole brake lever. I find this easier to use. Also my 105 C/set has pressed rings, for god's sake, at 100 notes?! Go to the road section of the customer reviews, and you find that the makers of this site have just listed Shimano, Shimano, Shimano. No wonder not many people have reviewed road componenets. BTW, when I bought my first MB in 1984 (KHS Expedition), Suntour (Mountech) ruled the roost. So things could change, but bike parts have always been more about marketing than function. This site is helping to promote that tradition.
