There should be a huge weight difference between these groupsets. This 11 speed Campagnolo Record, if I m not mistake, is even lighter than its Dura-Ace 9100 couter part. It should be mentioned that functionally whise with this Campagnolo groupset you can change gears quicker in the rear derailleur to a small cog (Ultrashift). It can change multiple gears in one go up and down the cassette. Shimano can shift multiple gears only in one direction, up the cassette.
You need to do whatever fits with your fleet and riding goals. I wouldn't want to spend a lot of money on an older S5. But if I was racing crits or really wanted a KOM on a local climb, I may spend some money on it.
I'm not sure why Campagnolo does such a lousy job of marketing their amazing product. The bike industry is starting to wake up to the reality that customers are done with buying new bikes with electronic shifting and impractical disc brakes. People are now buying used bikes that are 5-10 years old. Campagnolo should capitalize on the opportunity and offer more tiers again. The new Super Record Wireless was the dumbest idea they could have made. They should have just made EPS wireless, kept the thumb lever and rim brakes, and offer it for record and chorus. The current wireless shifters are stupid-heavy and I've heard that shifting is painful due to the sharp edges. Why would anyone spend $4,500 for that? Having said that, I'm thinking I should buy 12 Speed SR mechanical/rim while I can.
Beautiful looking bike! How’s the ride comfort wise? I’m on steel and have been for 20 years now, just wondering how it would compare as I’ve never ridden an aluminum bike.
Just found your channel, great content. I tried disc brakes on a recent build, Colnago C64 and sold it after three rides. The noise from the brakes, either rubbing or when they over heating on long descents, absolutely did my bulb in! I ride all year round, 180-200 miles a week minimum and spend more time climbing than descending. The industry, that’s on its backside at the moment can keep them!
Sweet caad12 how much does it weigh? ive got a size 54 with sram red 11 speed still mech shifting 16lbs 11 oz with a heap carbon wheelset. going to invest into s some real weight savers soon looking to hit 6.8kg
It’s crazy that this is a 1999.... My first road bike was (still own) a 1989 Campy Athena spec’d 3.0 Criterium frame...blue and white...Cannondale also made a red/white Campy built model... I have bought a few more 89/90 3.0 frames ....one such frame is also a Crit, and has a beautiful dark to royal blue fade paint job...I, keeping it as is with some minor chips and rub marks...it has it’s matching Sakae fork and is getting Chorus or Record 10 speed, I have a damn near new set of Campy Eurus wheels, black Thomson seat pot and a NOS Selle Flite Ti saddle...and Look pedals...
I won’t knock Shimano BTW…Japanese manufacturing design R&D is top shelf….my family background is Italian so I don’t really have a choice in the matter…. Made in Japan was a buy word for cheap/low quality after WW2….America helped rebuild the AXIS country’s industrial sectors in a gesture of good faith and in recognition of a emerging world of Global interconnectedness…. The Japanese looked out from their island nation and recognized the bicycle frames of Italy, the cars of Germany (and Italy 😉) and the motorcycles of Great Britain….they took in the design as inspiration, but acknowledged that these objects were almost perfect in their physical presentation…the Japanese applied their cultural desire for perfection and gave the world back copies and interpretations that are considered as impressive as the originals to this day…. It’s a preference I’m just trying to say 🤷🏼♂️🤣
I found this video again like I’ve never seen it before 🤣🤣🤣 But, I’ve just purchased an early Chorus 10 speed group set, from a seller in Italy…it’s the Chorus Generation that adopted the aluminum Record crankset with the drive side arm that overlaps the 5th chainring bolt… Beautiful And, my Eurus 3G wheel set has also arrived…adding everything up for my Cannondale 3.0 build 🚴🏼♂️🚴🫵🏻🥳
Did you have any problems setting up the large cassette? I’ve got a caad 12 also and having trouble setting it up with the 11-34 cassette, haven’t got enough clearance between the upper pulley and the cassette
This might be silly, but Campagnolo parts are just prettier than any other brand.....and that’s becoming harder to come by with the overbuilt/ oversized trend in components.... And I want to be Attracted to my bike😍
