I've reconsidered almost every frame, wheelset and high end apparel item, I've sold. But I don't miss DA 9150. That beautiful groupset revealed to me that a "modern" shift group will not qualitatively enhance my riding experience but it can diminish it. Mis-shifts (Campy 11), clunky shifts (Red/Force), slow shifting (etaps), and dead batteries (only DI2 complaint), all recurring issues for a guy with multiple bikes and multiple wrenches. So, I'm back on Campagnolo 10; I don't like to climb, anyway.

Hi Burnette!

I mostly run and still will run campy 10. I must say that Di2 is schweet... BUT haven't tried any of the others.

Interesting how passionate I 'feel' about my brifters... Campy 'feels' the best for my hands. Campy 10 - all versions.

But the shifting Di2 has... is ... so crisp...

I just couldn't get used to campy 10s' hood shape. My hands felt like they were gonna slip off any minute. I really prefer shimano's hood shape because I can tilt them up then use the reach adjustment screws to bring the levers close to my hands.

Well, ayup, that’s key. In the shop trenches we always said pick the hood shape your hands liked most, and if it didn’t matter............get Campagnolo.....

Since you can keep your wheels, going with 11 speed EPS might be your best choice.
