    Campagnolo v Shimano...again 😁

    Hello sorry it's a bit odd but I try and simplify things as that's how I understand what I'm asking. Great answer and very informative as well as being helpful as I didn't know the place the Mirage takes in the Campagnolo family. I have Athena Ergo levers which I don't really like but I think...

    1976 SBDU Decals?

    Thank you. I was a bit unsure about this frame when I had seen it before. But I checked out the Reynolds 531 seat tube decal and it was the correct one for that year of frame. I think what confused me was that I had seen a different/incorrect one on the same year of frame. Thank you again.

    Campagnolo v Shimano...again 😁

    Hello I have a Shimano 600 SIS rd from about 1986 and I have a Campagnolo Mirage rd from the mid 90s. Does anyone have an opinion to which is the better? I believe the 600 is for the use of 5/6 speed and the Mirage for 7/8 Speed? Any help or comments would be welcome...to a point lol

    Campagnolo Athena...awful?

    When changing gear I expected a more precise action it seemed to be lagging/slow to want to change. There was a click but no 'positive' movement. The levers to me had too much play in them. The chain kept slipping off as well. Thank you.
