While I don't mind the prev. gen Campagnolo 10sp levers (first liked the shape in the Tektro R200A lever), I have 2 sets of them and one set of the Tektros - I do think the new generation are more comfortable. I have the 10sp Centaur levers on my Fuji and while the shifting feel could be better (and was improved in later versions), they are the best fit I've felt bar none. I've got a full Athena 11sp group in the closet waiting for the Kirk. I bought it from VeloMine, US based shop that will price-match the UK guys if you call them (or email most likely). I think they've still got a few of the 2010 or 2011 Athena groups for deep discount.
