okay so i have the bike now:
Am I an idiot if I want to swap out an Ultegra groupset w/ FSA SL-K Light crankset for a straight up SRAM force set>?<
honest answers including flame if necessary :)

brilliant here we go then, sale thread coming up!

Id it new or old Ultegra?
If new I'd keep the Shimano if old I'd swap it out.

it's last year's ultegra 6600, but it's brand spanking.

why does anyone like di2
Its heavier, slower and less reliable and only works for a limited number of hours.
Its backwards. -

Ed said di2 is good, so good it is.

when did scoble become the almighty knowledge database of groupsets?....
is this like his supreme knowledge of "genuine track geometry".... despite never actually riding at a track?I rode at the Palmer Park Stadium when I was at school, so stop going around making silly assumption Frodo.
ed, palmer park was more of a roundabout with an adverse camber than a track.

Rival is a bit hit and miss I find, the chainrings flex and the rear mech needs a jockey wheel upgrade. But, the chain, cassette and shifters are as good as DA in my opinion.
Super record is very good and very light, wanky shaped hoods though.
I'd rate the groupsets this way:
Di2 > Red / SR / Record > Force / Chorus > Rival / Ultegra / Athena > Everything else
I've said it before, campy is for little girls with little hands and little trainer-bras.

And me.
SRAM is for winners, Shimano is for engineers and Campag is for people who like pretty bicycles*.
*the new ergos are still ugly.

JayGee & I both have 11 speed Campagnolo, and i think you will find that we are the strongest riders on this forum by a country mile*, therefore, Campag is the best.
*lies.

I hate SRAM's shifting mechanism, downshifts are way to hard.

• #43
IDN is a gent, tried his rival setup and I'm going for Force, be it if I have to sell my track bike or otherwise :)

Fudgescycles are the cheapest SRAM delaer in Europe. Don't go in to the shop in West London though as they are a bunch of fucking cunt faced cunt fuckers
