I have SRAM Red 10 speed on the Sunday bike and SRAM Rival on the Rourke.
I ended up with SRAM over Shimano because Dov sold me his Red group for stupid money and then when I built the Rourke I figured it made sense for both bikes to run the same system (for lots of reasons).
When I first got it I wasn't convinced that the shifting up the block was as nice on SRAM as it is on Campag, but shifts down are.. but then you do a couple of thousand k's on it and you don't think about it anymore. Same goes for lever shapes and everything else as far as I'm concerned - just get on with it, it all works.
