[BMCfan]

oegh yeah ek wil daai chorus he!!!! - wil iemand op die hub nie 'n stadige funriders sponsor nie

[Johan Brits]

Very much money!!

[Reg Lizard]

Dura -ace for me. Have not had any problems with the gruppo in the past 18 months.

As shortlegs said - why spend the money on DA if your just a social rider.

 

However, if you're going to do plenty miles, DA is the way to go. I did 50000km on my 9speed DA, replaced 1 chain ring, a few clusters and, as with any groupset, quite a few chains. The ultegra stuff I had has never done that well: 10-20000km and its toast.

 

I've only just taken the that 9speed DA (which still runs nicely) off my training tractor to replace it with a 10speed I got from casci a week ago. I mostly only got the 10 speed because the price was decent and now I can swap wheels (and other parts should the unlikely need arise) with my race bike.

 

I haven't used campag stuff in years. Their older stuff was very smooth, all their hubs were way better than shimano with the notable except of DA, but the chainrings used to wear really quickly and their cranks were quite flexible. Don't know what they are like these days, but the cranks still look 'spindley' and flexible.

 

volgens die cwc specials is

2008 dura ace 9500

If this is how much campag stuff costs these days, I'd save myself plenty bucks and go the shimano route - leading right back to the Ultegra or DA question.....

Add R250 for shipping and 14% vat. If you are prepared to wait 5-10 days its worth it. I ordered most of my parts fom them and no problems.

 

You could have 2008 Chorus for about R9500 which is a bargain!!!
