WRT Campy cassettes: you can still get a 13-28 in the 10-speed version if you hunt around a bit. I just got one for a customer of mine, who by the way is running Campy Centaur with a 165mm SRAM Red crank.
Oh thank you for reminding me. I use FORCE for my front, rear deraillure and FORCE brifters. Cranks and clusters are also FORCE. Chain however, I use Ultegra. SRAM FORCE chain just doesn't hold up. One of the pins in the chain worked its way out. Had only 2000miles on the road. Pretty sad. but otherwise, I'm pretty happy with my FORCE.
