Campagnolo Vs Shimano VS SRAM for road bike applications., Which is best and why?
I am in the process of gathering all the parts I need to build a road bike from the ground up and have decided to go with Campagnolo parts from thier Centaur gruppo. But I am interested in opinions of the other manufacturers and thier product and want to hear the pro's and con's of each...
Each manufacturer has their pluses and minuses. It's more of matter of taste as to which one is really better. Safe to say it's an even playing field. Here are my opinions on the topic since everyone else will give you theirs.
Campagnolo has been around longer than any other company to date. Campy tends to bring up images of pedigree and high quality. In the past, they did have quality problems from the late 80's- the eatly 90's, but they bounced back and are still up there with the other three.
Pros: Heritage, reliable, components are interchangeable through the entire line, repairable shifters.
Cons: Replacement stuff aren't always readily available and I'm not a fan of their shifters. They seemed like they were designed for people with small hands. Also, while you can repair Campy shifters, anyone that's done it knows that it isn't easy.
Shimano has been around quite a long time but nowhere near as long as Campy. However, they are the first to successfully use index shifting back in the 80's and they pioneered the STI system. They marketed the index system in a way that has made them bigger than the other two by convincing vendors that index shifting will only work with Shimano specific components, then introducing STI a few years later.
Pros: Very reliable, more readily available parts, go to any race (even in Europe) and you'll see more Shimano equipped support cars than Campy or SRAM, I love the feel of their shifters. They are a very diverse company, offering components for bottom feeder bikes (ie. department stores) as well as high end $10K rigs.
Cons: Not all components are interchangeable throughout line. They seem to phase out older components fast and force the owner to upgrade, Shifters are garbage when they fail.
SRAM has been around a long time. I was told that they used to be SACHS but I can't confirm that. Anyway, they are really good components. Just a few years ago, Shimano was backlogged with orders on their components. Many roadies started looking toward SRAM as an alternative. It really surprised them when SRAM cassettes and chains were just as good as the Shimanos and were actually less expensive to buy. What's funny about it is that mountain bikers had been using SRAM for quite a long time. Now they have full grouppos and they are all race-worthy.
Pros: They have the lightest groups on the market, and already have a huge following. They run smoothly. Haven't tried the Red but the Force rode extremely well.
Cons: Shifting action left a bad taste in my mouth. I thought that there was too much effort in shifting the double shift thing might take some getting used to but I think that a group this good should be more like the Shimano or Campy groups. Then again, isn't SRAM a different kind of company? Remember this was just my opinion
