The Escape Collective (the independent source of cycling journalist which doesn't take any industry money) is a bit underwhelmed by Super Record WRL:

Gear inches
I ride on the flat a bunch and I usually push something like a 65 to 70 inch gear ratio. Some call it the magic 70.
So 39 x 15 = 68.3 and 42 x 16 = 69.0 Everyone talks about top end and low end when discussing gear ratios. Those are the extremes. i tend to think around what do I usually ride. If I had a 32 or 29 inner ring that would put me into this ring and cog combo: 29 x 11 = 69.3 32 x 12 = 70.1 34 x 13 = 68.7 That is some serious cross gearing. I suppose you can switch to the big ring. But that again is a cross chain situation. I am running 52 by 36, which is compact enough, otherwise it seems to be a cross chain situation on the flat. Ok the big ring break down is as follows, maybe not that bad after all. i still tend to picj gearing that puts me inthe middle of cassette on the flat. 45 x 17 = 69.6 48 x 18 = 70.1 50 x 19 = 69.2 Last edited by dana_e; 05-30-2023 at 12:10 PM. |

Is this for real? Is campy rolling out on fat bikes or something?

Also, I'm not sure if your comparison is of value, since I doubt anyone really cares what the MSRP for DA is since most of their component sales are through the OEM channel, whereas Campy is OEM on only a handful of brands that nobody is buying anyways. |

2. Why would you not normally be in the big ring on the flats? |

vs eTap
Long time campy fan - but a bit underwhelmed. And the costs are just too much for me.
Looks like a nicer eTap, which still has a rim brake option. I prefer the shift layout of eTap, but the aesthetics of campy... |

OK, big ring it is
45 x 17 = 69.6
48 x 18 = 70.1 50 x 19 = 69.2 Maybe I am old school and used to 53 bigs. Having 12 in back changes the gear game. |

For $5300 the photos make it look like a bird crapped on the crankset.

The previous H11 and 12spd cranks had kind of an in-between chainline, halfway between the expected chainlines for 130mm and 135mm rear wheel axle widths, so that the cranks could be used with either wheel width. But as this new group is disc only, and has a wider Q, it's a good bet that the new chainline is setup for 135mm wheels only. |

I guess i 'll wait out the next generation when they eat some humble pie, apologize and bring the thumb shifter back
