IN a perfect world:
The look and durability of Campag, but with the freehub design that Shimano have sewn up with patents.
I've ridden a '96 Record / Chorus mix bike all winter for the past three years, still looks good as new.
They even make their chainrings out of metal, unlike ShimaNO who use some kind of cheese / cardboard composite.:shock:
I love the teeny grease ports on Record hubs and headsets, and the fact that you can adjust bearings with the wheel still on the bike. Campag is simple to maintain.
