Campy Red Issue

Of course I’ll be sporting these levers this year.

These shifters made for professional use only have ‘very stiff special springs’ that increase the input force required to make a shift. Campy says that its professionals, and Chris Smith, have specifically asked for the stiffer, crisper shift action because it helps them feel the shifts even in the hardest moments of a race.

C-Ya!

    Those are shifters? I thought they were carbon fiber lint brushes.
