Campy 2009 shifters?

[Christie]

 Comfortable yet fugly? THese are the E-Record ones, but I dont think the shape of the normal 09 shifters will be much different.....

OMG...Whats with all the new lever designs? They look cr@p. I 'm sure they work really well, and do loads of stuff like counting your pinky's pulse...but they look hideous.

 

(But still better than the Shimano ones!!!!)

Where the downshif levers???? Are they the bulges on the inside of the leavers? How do you downshift in the drops; unless they are very sensitive this will be a problem.

Its the electronic version, so to downshift you just press the small button on the inside of the shifter.

A poor attempt to look like SRAM

Eish, it are FUGLY!!!!!  Seems like everyone now want s to emulate SRAM.

Ive ridden a few bikes equipped with SRAM, and i can honestly say they are by far the most comfortable levers i have ever held. So if thats the way Campagnolo are moving, it can only be a good thing!

Look like Campy are copying Shimano , aesthetically speaking.

Zas, does the SRAM also "bend in"?  Will you swop your Chorus for SRAM?

No, not from what i remember. They brake lever is straight, but in terms of comfort its the hoods than are really nice. Much more ergonomical than the current campy and shimano ones.

 

I would swap my campy for SRAM RED, yes!
