The AXS blip being freed from the additional shifter is one of those "its about time" kind of updates.

I am of the impression the Campag Super Record is a no-show for the 2024 Grand Tours. If I'm right, it makes a big statement on a Groupset once held as a "gold standard". While, on market share, Campag has been a minnow compared to Shimano and Sram, it maintained a strong, constant and loyal following, which seems to now be diminishing. As an old grannie saying goes Campag should stick to its knitting and focus on refining it's groupset to being one of the best and at a price competitive point. If the pro-teams are opting to kick it to the kerb what's that indicating to the common-all garden roadie.
@gplama
@gplama 27 днів тому
Campagnolo missing from the Grand Tours (and any World Tour team) is more about the money a company is willing to spend on team sponsorship. I suspect Campagnolo just didn't want to play that game..... but.... in turn they do miss out on the marketing that sponsoring a pro team provides. Having said that, by all reports it's really not a top contender when it comes to performance. Side note: I attended a Campagnolo press/media event in January that gave no indication of the new Bora wheels, Ekar GT, or their power meter coming in the following months. I expected they'd have given some insight to those who gave up their evening to attend the event. As a one-man-band that just pissed me off to be honest. And having attended their event I'm not even on their media mailing list for releases.

Campagnolo are really going to try to push through with their “We're the best, because we say so” marketing strategy. And to be fair, it was mostly true (if not always worth the extra $$) until things went electronic, now they just seem a bit deluded.

Just amongst my friends I know two people who bought the Shimano FC-R8100-P (separately, didn't come stock on their bikes), because it's the official product. People willing to spend the unhealthy amount of money on Campagnolo Super Record wireless, which apparently shifts accurately in about 90% of situations (that's seriously bad if you ask me) in the first place probably wouldn't mind spending extra 2.5k on a powermeter that doesn't perform.

II'm a Campy Super Record owner and I have been running Favero Assiomas as my power solution. I'll take Campy over Shimano Dura-Ace any day of the week for rider feel and feedback, and that's said whilst having 9150 Dura-Ace on my other bike. Shimano's only advantage is that parts are readily available all over the world (unlike Campy), which is why my Campy bike is limited to North America and European trips only.

As their first power meter? Up against power pedals which aren't known to be 8-15% off (in general)... I highly doubt it. What I do know with 100% confidence is never to rely on technical specs alone. Shimano and their meter is case-in-point.
