Campy for my peg

I have done a bunch of reading in the forums. I have a Peg. It really deserves an italian groupset. The ribble posting elsewhere is serving as motivation. I don't care about weight nor do I particularly care about 11 spd vs 10 spd.

I am not thrilled with the extra tools necessary for PT vs UT, but on the other hand I am kind of a tool hog so what the hell if it comes to that...

All that said, I was leaning towards silver athena on purely aesthetic grounds. But Ribble is out of the compact crank I would want 170/50-34.

So my options:
1) std crank athena -- not the end of the world
2) silver veloce -- cheaper, crank I want
3) buy from shinybikes which seems to have similar prices and has athena silver with compact crank

In my brief surfing around, people do seem to enthuse about Ribble and have occasional issues with Shinybikes -- but not an exhaustive sample.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Also, if you think I am making a big mistake and should just get Chorus happy to hear that too...
