    Congrats!! DH just ordered his today. He's a small. Gonna swap his Ultegra in his current bike to this one once he gets it.

    I'm tempted to get one too... his and hers, though I can't justify spending more $$ considering I just got my Ruby last year. But it does look so good.

    LBS say if I were to get it, I should get SRAM Rival for grouppo. Campy doesn't make stuff for small hands.

    Thank you

    My campy levers work just great for my small hands (small size gloves, longest finger is 3")! The new ergo levers are awesome--I would highly recommend them to others with small hands! More comfortable than my Shimano 105 levers!

    Really!? Could you tell me which Campy you got so I can take a look at it and pass it onto my LBS?

    Thanks!

    I have Chorus on my bike but Campy has great trickle-down technology regarding the less expensive groupsets too so don't hesitate to look at Athena, Veloce or Centaur.

    I would recommend seeing/touching the Campy levers in person if you can, even if it's not at the LBS that is building up your bike (in case they don't customarily stock it) to see how it fits your hand.

    Best of luck
