To those interested, find a copy of "The High Tech Bicycle". Great book publishing in 1982. The author predicted Campagnolo's fall from #1 with uncanny accuracy. Campy's failure to innovate & comfortable expectance as the racers favorite almost did them in. Shimano's AX groups were a flop in the early 80's but were the first steps in the evolution to todays equipment.
