javadude Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Campagnolo gear changers go "clunk". There is zero finesse. Odd for Italians. Ever noticed how the thumb changer lever chows thumbs on long rides and the nipple on top of the lever grips is so small it helps bugger all.................Big H, is that you? Cippo 1

jcza Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 I thought nothing goes 'clunk' like SRAM. Campag shifts like a dream and the hoods are very comfortable.

Patchelicious Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 I thought nothing goes 'clunk' like SRAM. Campag shifts like a dream and the hoods are very comfortable. Agreed. SRAM Red on one bike, Campag SR on other, campag def smoother, even though its taking some getting used to the different shifting mechanism.
Mikejk Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Hello Gents Im hoping for first hand advice with regard to installing a Campy Record crank to a SWorks Roubaix SL3 frame with BB30 (or similar Spez). The bike is full on Record excepting for the crank which currently is SWorks. Seems like 3 options/* Campy 42mm BB30 adaptor cups* Specialized adaptors* Press in alloy sleeve that regresses BB30 to an English threaded BB Watched a You Tube video where they installed a Press In sleeve and died a thousand deaths watching the forcing and effort required to eventually seat it! Could anyone with first hand experience possibly offer some advice as to which the most effective hassle free method would be? Many thanks

Many thanks Is the Roubaix pressfit BB30 (no circlip retaining the bearing) or straight BB30 (allie bb housing with a circlip retaining a bearing which fits straight into the frame)? Sounds like the former so you can use the Campy adapters or you can get a Sram adapter (Pressfit BB30 to BSA adapter). For the former, Campy make straight BB cups.I've used them all, including the press-in sleeve (with loctite). It isn't actually so bad if you use the special drive tool and a proper BB press-fitting tool. Edited August 18, 2015 by Fitter

Mikejk Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) Thanks Fitter. Yes its the former and Im pretty sure Campy is the best way to go. Having said that! Thanks for the info Spinnekop! Definitely worth looking into. Thanks chaps! Edited August 18, 2015 by play fair

MTB-m00se Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Greeting Campagnolians, I have lost the up shift return spring in my rear shifter It is a Record-Ergopower 10-speed shifter. Will i need to import a rebuild kit or is this something that a bike shop could service for me? Any advise would be most appreciated. Regards, //m00se
