So they say, I'd really like to test ride one, not around the lbs parking lot but on an actual 20-30 mile ride with the Cat 4 climb mixed in.

this is like powermeters, where word of mouth and anecdotes color it so much.

my arms look super weird to me today, and I missed a ton of spots.
This is my concern about electric, and how slowly it seems to shift when sprinting. I'm not the most meticulous guy out there, I don't spend hours prepping my bike, I just ride it and clean when people start commenting 'Nice brown bike'.

Although when I'm suffering up a hill, and the guy ahead of me is pressing a button to shift, I wonder how much easier my life would be with that

Right now all I know is Campy 10 speed and going to Campy 11 is a major hassle unless you get an Italian brand.
