Was at the LBS today. Owner says he’s seen it. Full wireless, thumb lever replaced by two buttons. Disc only at this point and batteries that are a pain to take off-but don’t need to be to be charged.

Didn’t ask about price. Because I can’t afford it.

Campagnolo 10 speed

Surprised you didn't type this in all caps

Little to no info on Q, J&B or Hawley. Summer stoke is here, though. Ekar is still on sale and all kinds of BOGO action for pirelli tires. No Campy mention or opportunities to pre buy. Closed on Monday for Memorial Day is the header theme. Heavy inventory...in all categories

Could be a while? You'll have a flood of info in a few days. (I know the groups are in OE hands - Aftermarket to follow)


And Ekar? Was and is selling very well (with US distribution/adoption doing the bulk of the heavy lifting internationally). That you didn't see it doesnt mean it didn't exist, That stuff rolled out relatively smoothly.

I like how Sold Out is a fail but then proper inventory and a sale price (which pretty much every manufacturer does) also means it's not selling well.



This is pretty much the definition of not knowing what to throw at...

You literally don't know what you don't like, but you're sure (but not excited) about it...


Though you will... Next week. (but then again you wont really because you wont have hands on info but rather just more general distaste, about gearing, probably aesthetics or Price or....)

i'm agnostic as they come. but i did not know campagnolo was one of the world's religions.

Driving around the republic and Denver, I've seen only one Aprilia, never seen a MV Augusta. Saw a new manufacture Norton yesterday..really sweet. Gee in the wild too.

I guess those guys are on the brink of going under, since I don't see many....

Little to no info on Q, J&B or Hawley.

Yikes, another example of US distributors doing the thinking' for ya. RE-a LBS saying that rim brake Campagnolo and Fulcrum wheels 'out of production'..
Nope, US distributors do not the market make.

Be patient grasshopper, all will be revealed soon. Then you will have something to 'complain' about.

'QBP and Junk and Bargins'...Hawley is just 'ok' but teeny in the 'grand scheme of things'..they aren't on the 'A' list of distribution for Campag neither is J&B.

i'm agnostic as they come. but i did not know campagnolo was one of the world's religions.

Ya new here?

Why use caps when you offer nothing... not even a real complaint.


All info is under embargo but that is lifted... next week - so you can offer more specific critical speculation.

Was just a guess, I have no inside info. Why you gotta velocipede me?

Okay, I'll play the game. Here's my Campagnolo WRL predictions:

The leaked information appears to show that there is a "sub-compact" option, with small chainrings (45/29) and cassettes that start with 10 tooth sprockets. But I suspect that the new WRL derailleurs will also be compatible with traditional sized chainrings and cassettes, and that the pro racing teams will stick with the traditional sized drivetrains (large chainring 52 tooth or larger, smallest sprocket 11 tooth). There may some exceptions for special circumstances where pro racers will use a compact cassette with traditional sized chainring. A popular option with non-racers will be the sub-compact crankset with a traditional sized cassette.

[nmrt]

i'll tag along on the game as well.

as i do not care too much about sub compact gearing, i just hope that it looks not as bulky as Sram AXS, is lighter, and reliable. my sram xx1 axs RD had "issues" that are somewhat well documented. but this is not a sram bashing thread now, is it?

LOL, I'm just saying, the price is higher for a group than $4800 Euros... If that guess was in Euro's, you would be the first-ish in the ballpark.
