Strengths: Excellent wear and shifting.Weaknesses: Slightly more pricy then DA (9-sp) but think it's worth it.Bottom Line: No complaints. Excellent shifting performance. Better wear then I expected with a 13-26. I use all the gears as I do many hilly areas and I think that helps even out the wear. I'm surprised the Ti cogs are wearing as well, over 5k miles on cassette (and record chain) so I'm expecting may have to change soon .. but so far it's exceeded my expectations on wear. Use a dry lube and I think that helps on wear.

Strengths: Decent weight.Weaknesses: Poor wear of the ti cxogs and the chain is a joke that in 2003 Campy still hasn't figured out how to build a chain which can be easily disassembled without using a $60 chain tool.Bottom Line: The two ti cogs wear very quickly, ti is simply not a good material choice in this type of application and no way 30 grams saved is gonna make you a faster racer, your living in a total dreamworld if you believe that for even a minute. Is Campy or Shimano ever going to come up with current day technology chain link which doesn't require a tool to disasemble a chain like SRAM?
Favorite Ride: Tahoe Hills
Similar Products Used: I recently switched from the record ti/steel cassette to an all steel cassette. In addition I completely abandoned that crappy Campy 10 sped chain and started using a 9 speed SRAM PC89R chain on my Ca

Strengths: Great shifting. Like another guy said: it's campy, what else needs to be said.Weaknesses: Doesn't most all things worth having cost more than we want them to?Bottom Line: I don't understand the other folks problems with this cassette. The ti one is bound to be a problem because ti just doesn't do friction too well. This cassette, on the other hand shouldn't be a problem. The chain has thus far been the weak link(no pun intended) in the 10 spd group. I'm on my third chain(I kicked down for the Wipperman Stainless Steel chain this time) with this cassette & everything works flawlessly. I raced from April to September on this cassette last year & have been logging miles all winter on it(knock on wood).

Strengths: Smooth shifting, quiet.Weaknesses: Wears quickly.Bottom Line: No real complaints with this setup, other than it wears pretty quickly. But I decided with this bike that I wanted a full-on Division One racing machine. With that comes a much bigger price tag at every step. I rode a Confente Masi for 22 years with original Dura-Ace, and hardly ever had to replace anything. But I have to say that there has been some improvement made on the basic bike since 1977, and I am willing to bear the cost because it puts one big smile on my face. If only the weather here was more cooperative...

Strengths: lasts about 10,000 miles
It's Campy, need I say more?Weaknesses: noneBottom Line: These cassettes rule. Others are doing something way wrong if thet are having trouble.
If you replace your chain regularly it lasts forever!
