Campagnolo promo

First part is really nice, then it gets a bit tacky with the modern era components... shame they missed a few mileastones, like C-Record... but still enjoyable

Quite fun, seeing the kit, both bike and clothing change.

I really enjoyed it as well. Thanks for sharing!

I'm a Campag man through and through, however apart from introducing an extra cog every now and then, and adding a bit of bling carbon, they're not the innovators they used to be.

I totally agree... since Valentino took over the company, it's been style over substance. Tullio was very much a visionary and an innovator, while his son doesn't have the same engineering genius.

The Ergo lever was a better system than the STI and the 9 speed Campag was better than the 9 speed Shimano, but other than that, they have trailed behind for nearly 30 years

Yes they now do a good job of copying Shimano and making it work better and look better!
