Hmmm.

I like the current 11s 4 arm crank, the new 12s one is fugly. Eleven is plenty for me.

It’s ugly, I’ll get used to it. Arguably not any uglier than current gen 11 speed. Like the larger shift paddle. Wish they did a 11-36, maybe later on they will. In for my next groupset.

Shimano is putting mtb derailleurs on road bikes and now campy is making an rd that sticks 3 feet from the frame.

I guess that is why campy had been quite, they were working on 12 speed. Thats cool but I will stick with 11 for a while now, not ready to make a big investment for 1 extra speed)... and man is this ugly (and I like the 4 arm crank but this one is worst)

That looks terrible

Curious to see how the crank mounts now.

New brakes are aweful looking too.


Also, and calling cadence90 here for his opinion, the new logos look terrible. Campy is going back to the 90s car logo futuristic look that looks outdated.

Well hopefully it grows on me because I definitely want to try it

Hmmm.

I think what's interesting is the split with Chorus and below..12s will be EPS/mechanical, disc/rim brake....Trying to find out now if 11s lever convertible to 12s..

I'm assuming crank bolts from non drive side rather than drive side..ala Potenza and Cemtaur.

Thanks..like shimano, start at upper end and work down..I think there will be a kinda split..SR/Record and Chorus and below. Mech and EPS SR/Record levers for rim and disc...mechanical for rim and disc for Chorus(11s) and below...

More interested in the high end...Kinda like other 'goods'..motorcycles, cars, guitars, watches, audio gear, cameras...etc...Don't think Bugatti will be making a small SUV anytime soon or Rolex a digital watch..

I know we all have differing opinions but this group is hideous looking! Guess I will go back to Shimano if I ever need a new group unless my old 10 and 11s stuff keeps on going for a long time.
