Speedi Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Ok, so everyone has been raving about the new Sram road groupsets... But what i want to know is: Is Sram really better that Shimano and Campy? Im not getting Sram , i just want to know what the difference is... Is Sram better or worse than the other big groupsets? So please, those of you that had Campy or Shimano and have changed to Sram, is there a big difference? Is it worth it in the long run? Speedi2008-10-11 12:42:29
1kTT Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 went from d-ace to sram red a couple of months ago. really like the sram shifting + brakes. also it is lighter. it isnt so much better that it will change your life...
AndreZA Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Define better. Better made, better colour scheme, better shifting, better weight. If your current groupset works without any trouble then what can be better. If it does not work without trouble, then someone messed up the installation. No groupset is better then any other. It comes down to personal choice. If you don't need/want a lightweight groupset, then why go lighter. If you don't need/want more then 9 speed, then why get it. If you don't want/need to be a ponce, don't get Campy. Mampara2008-10-13 00:15:26

GoLefty!! Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 No its not. It's different nad has some features that you may find appealing.1) the zero loss shifting2) the ergonomics3) slightly less weight At the end of the day both shift a derailleur up and down a set of sprocket teeth. Both do it efficiently.
