2011 Athena has alloy shifters now. Downside is that they use the new 'power shift' mech that doesn't allow multiple shifts in both directions (as was with the case with the old 'Escape Mech' they did a few years back. Best prices on new Campy groups can be found at VeloMine.com - US based shop that will price match pretty much anyone (including UK shops). Fantastic customer service as well.


and gentlemen - no personal attacks, general or otherwise please. And no cross-forum drama either. Thank you.
