Yeah, the clinging to the past was aimed at cycling in general, not one brand. The cycling fraternity, collectors, governing body etc

29ers will never take

Disc Brakes will never be popular

Dropper posts weigh too much

Dual suss bikes are just too complicated

These are but a few of many examples I've seen bandied around on this very website. There are many innovations that we use currently that were shunned - people even openly shunned 1x on their MTB for years!

We’re all guilty of those transgressions . But eventually we all want nice things so we cave and hand over the cash.

eventually everyone will have had at least o e Campagnolo groupset…

A bit like I've said before 'sooner or later everyone wants to ride a Specialized' 🤪

Question: Should Bike Hubbers that incorrectly spell Campagnolo be banned for a period of 31 days?

🤓🤭✍️….

it really is irrelevant how they spell Campbagnoloh, as long as they ride on SRAM drivetrains and spell SRAM correctly then the world is all good.

But it’s a lifetime ban for pronouncing SRAM incorrectly

Lest I fall foul of this rule ... can you clarify if it's S-RAM or Sh-RAM

Some of the adverts I've seen on here put it at SCRAM

Remember this guy: 'kempekkernoglia'

That deserves more than 31 days !
But then again, it was hard to take him seriously...

It really is terrible stuff. I'd advise you to sell off all your old Campag parts before they become totally worthless. Heck, I'd even be willing to take them off your hands for a small fee 😇

Me too, especially if anyone has one of their terrible corkscrews, just call me and I'll relieve you of it for R10 000 (in your, and my,  dreams)

What are they worth now ?

There are those that have owned Campag 10 Speed Record and then there is the rabble that will never know what a proper shift feels like. Its like coming home when you engage the shift lever and theres no mamby pamby ratcheting around but rather a solid thunk as it shifts. And it alwasy does it and its always accurate.
