yes... that helps! all the posts have so far!

i don't plan on getting entry (well.... at least if i was getting shimano i wouldn't get entry...i would get at least ultegra... and would look into dura-ace, but i believe i can't get a triple with that!)

i assume i would get something mid also with campy (campag)... it appears chorus is middle of the road... but the record in black sure is pretty!

i also guess i need to find a bike shop with a bike with campy on it so i can give it a go...

on thing i absolutely hate on my bike... is the shifting! i've had issues since day one (which ultimately, in my frustration of not being able to shift onto the big ring... caused me to force it enough to break it! *gasp*! you may have read my thread about that!)

it seems that campy is much easier to shift and much smoother... already a big plus in my book considering we're having wonderfully warm days and my part is at shimano right now so that i can't ride
