Admiral Ackbar:
I've barely ridden at all since nov because SNOWPOCALYPSE and its been freezing for months but heres my chinese bike atm.
Sasha:
Is that Campaglio shifters with Shumungo bits?
Admiral Ackbar:
yes it is. I have a jtek shiftmate so i can run campy 10sp brifters x shimano 10sp everything else. http://jtekengineering.com/?page_id=18
did it because campy ergonomics are way better, and surprisingly, campy brifters are significantly cheaper than their shimano counterparts. they're also rebuildable (generally speaking)
you can also run campy levers with one more gear than your shimano shifters if you route the cable differently, or two less routed normally. as in, 11sp campy brifters will shift 10sp shimano kit with alternate cable routing or 9sp shimano with normal cable routing. same thing with 10sp brifters like i have. 9speed with alternate routing, or 8 clamped normally. this is great for a cheap cx bike coz u can use old (hella cheap) 8 & 9 sp mtb cassettes. my winter/beater bike has campy10 to shimano9 with hubbub routing and it works mint.
