You are still going through groupsets 16 times faster than rekmeyata and 5 times faster than I have. However depending on what exactly we are talking about, I could have gotten more life out of my cassettes and chain rings if I needed to and I really more just wanted more climbing gears for the Colorado mountains instead of the Virginia flats I used to ride when I bought the bike. My shifters are still excellent.

Are you counting race crashes which destroyed components as 'wearing' them out?
