TBH I doubt there are many ppl out there who actually need anything above 105 and while modern frames and groupsets are great they probably far exceed most ppls needs.
How many compete to a level where they need all this stuff? Older groupset and frames are still just as good as they were, it's jsut that now there is something abit better.
nothing wrong in riding modern, well made, reliable, high performance groupsets that shift impeccably. just because you don't race doesn't mean you should deny yourself these luxuries.
people don't need organised gambling certified and crashed overpriced old technology race frames from half way around the world to ride in london. but plenty of willing sycophants spend their student loans on them only to have them nicked while on a cheap lager pavement drinking binge in londons famous londons east end.
nowt wrong with that. (well apart form the obvious stupidity but it's a free country)
