I am in the know I work in the industry and have worked in the industry for a number of years now and know quite a few folks who run Campagnolo (new stuff) and haven't had issues or think it is garbage in fact I have a friend who had campy ergo power levers that sort of died but he could still shift it as basically a friction shifter for years before we finally helped him replace it (I tried to get him to fix them up but he has his issues)
I think maybe you don't know what you are talking about and you must be joking or are doing something wrong. I have a co-worker who has had a mostly Super Record EPS 11 speed gruppo he has had for at least 5 years now and hasn't had a lick of issues, it is sexy, shifts nicely and unlike Di2 (which I do love) you can actually essentially turn the system off so it doesn't accidentally get shifted when you don't want it to without much work.
If stuff was in stock (and had a little extra cash laying about) I would probably build up an Ekar bike this year without hesitation.
I really gotta wonder how Campagnolo hurt you? Or do you work for MicroNew or Sensah?
