Nice artilce. Thanks for sharing it. When is your article on the LeMond-Armstrong fist to cuffs going to come out 
FYI: I find it interesting that there was no mention of cable stretch with the shifting. I've found this to be the biggest issue I've had going from nine to ten cogs. The ten cog is way more sensitive to this issue. This article seems to imply to me that it will be even more of a problem with the eleven cog setup. |

Won't make any difference if the 11 speed is electronic. Though with shimano leccy set coming in at £2,000 - you'll be able to buy a ducatti for the price of a campy leccy 11 speed. |

Oh I agree, but I haven't heard them say anything about it being electronic. |

It was not a product test where the issue of cable stretch might have
come up, it was an article about the technical issues Campagnolo had to
overcome in creating the 11 speed drivetrain.

Waste of money, Bartali. That chain will break.

| I haven't broken a chain in years either. I have noticed that 10 speed chains are less durable than 9 speed chains though. I suspect that the 11 speed chains will follow the same path. |

| Sure - spot on there Berck, but how many chains do you get through each year? Me - about one a year. I can live with that. |

| Two with the 9 speed chains. Three to four with the 10 speed chains. Still though, that's not that big of expense. I'm still more concerned about cable stretch issues. |

I, on the other hand, had never broken a chain in my life until 10-speed came along, since when I have broken two. It isn't that brilliant an experience if you're going at any speed. And how much better is the performance between 10 speed and 9 speed? Virtually nothing. Arguably, for weight and range, we'd be better off with 8-speeds and a triple.
