10sp Campagnolo Users...
My questions are for those of you riding on Campy's 10 speed cassettes...
How are they holding up? Does the 10sp seem to wear faster than 9sp?
I guess I have chain durability and reliability concerns. It would seem to me that the 9sp is close to maxing out the engineering...but that's probably what they said before jets!

I use 10 spd chorus and the chain, chain rings etc.. last longer and shift better than my ultegra group did.
As is 10 speed
cheers!

I find I get about 5,000 km on a chain and three chains per cassette. The chains are very good, and very tough and the cassette wear is pretty much the same as a 9-speed.

I am riding a new bike, with Campy Record including a 10sp cluster. I am running 13-26 with 39/53Right and No problems so far. I have noticed a bit of noise before fine tuning after changing gears. That's likely more me then the technology.
I live in a hilly area of So Ca. So far so good.
