I've got a Campag Mirage ergo lever set up with a 105 rear mech: it works but not all the time...
Thanks for that, may get some grief if it doesn't well so will try a solution first..

Very good shout with the CTC page, more information than Sheldon Brown!

Nice thanks. Fairly pricey though for lower end. Have you used one before?

I've just launched a crowd funding campaign through the Seedrs platform, which I know many of you are familiar with having invested in David's Microcosm project.
After speaking with David, I thought it may be a good move to introduce myself and the business, plus mention a meet up we've got happening at Look Mum No Hands (Mare St) on Wednesday 4th June 17:30 - 20:00.
My business is Bikmo, a site aimed to make life easier for any bike nut by aggregating all the information we'd normally spend hours across the web searching for.
The more nifty feature is our Find+Fit compatibility feature which will tell you what components fit your bike. We've spend 18 months aggregating the data for this (which has been a massive job) and it'll be live soon.
If you're interested then check out our website at http://bikmo.com and our Seedrs pitch at : https://www.seedrs.com/startups/bikmo1
The aim behind the meet up is to give anyone a chance to meet some of the team, have a beer and understand more of what we're about. If you're free and want to talk bikes and tech then drop in. More details below;

Also interested to hear any feedback / thoughts on what we're doing. The more niche/independent bikes will take a while to get onto the site but you'll soon be able to upload them yourself, then anyone else in the world can build with your frame.
Thanks,
Dave

Hi, I'm sorting out a Graham Weigh bike for my partner. It's currently got Campagnolo Veloce 9 speed shifters for the drop bars but I'm moving to a flat bar arrangement for her, for a couple of different reasons (kids being one!).
Campag do have a 10 speed flat bar shifter but it's pretty pricey and not 9 speed.
Do you know if the indexing for Shimano / SRAM would work with campag mechs?
Thanks,
Dave

I've used some lower end low spoke count RS20 wheels before for cross and they were fine despite being a heavier (84kg) rider. Depends how hard you ride and your weight!
Plus if they're well maintained, checking spoke tension before hammering them.

Awesome. All of it. And he directs his own with mates rather than a crew of 20 people.
Yeah good suggestion, will take a look at them this arvo after getting back into it!
