Reason for the question- I am considering getting a new Colnago Master frameset, and can install a 10S Record Gruppo that I already have, or get the new 12 speed setup. I don't want to feel like I am going to short change my riding experience (go back in time, if you will) by running the 10 speed.
I’ve been pondering a Master for my next significant birthday (60th) in a couple of years - if I did, I would simply move my current all-silver Chorus 10 groupset over - it’s all in great shape, I have a few cassettes in reserve, and I had the shifters rebuilt in 2020, so they’re good for at least another decade. I think the more traditional groupset would be a great match for a classic like the Master. I would put something electronic (EPS) on my current Litespeed frame and use it for group rides. Keep the Master for solos and more gentle rides
