Have been going for progressively longer rides with my 105 c-dale. Does anyone else have experience of 105 being incredibly slow to shift/get into gear? Breaking being sporadic (nothing, nothing, ALL THE POWER) and generally it being just a bit rubbish compared to SRAM rival/campag centaur (the other two groupsets i've ridden.) Despite the gears being correctly indexed by the LBS, after a reasonable shortish ride (70 miles) in average conditions, they are normally terrible and consistently mis-shift.
Anyone else have this?
