I have struggled with Potenza for a long time. I'd love to have it on one of my bikes but you can buy Ultegra soooooo much cheaper. I think Chain Reaction had Potenza on a deal but with an unusual combination of components.

I used to be Campag only from riding vintage-more modern 11spd and sadly today the quality of the workmanship just isn't there at anything under Chorus, which is very spendy relative to SRAM or Shimano.
I found 2007 Veloce still had a quality of construction close to Ultegra but today even Athena is like fucking cheese-cheap alloy nuts in the levers that strip when you fasten them and really shitty ratchets. Now on SRAM for everything because I hate Shimano shifters. Not seen Potenza in the flesh but I'd be wary...

Silver Potenza Groupo seems nice. Leaving this here as a note to my future self.
