Not for campag
Posted15 August 2011

" Very well put together and carefully thought-through but only works for non-campag which wiggles description does not make clear.
Jagwire do make Campag gear cables although at the moment Wiggle don't seem to sell them. In a moment of desperation in rural France, I machined down the stops on these cables to fit the holes for campag 11-speed. Disaster - I've heard combine harvesters that made less noise on the road and changed gear more reliably. AFAIK at the moment, the only alternative that works for 11-speed campag are the 'ultra' cables produced by the boys in Vicenza.
That said, if you are a fishing-tackle lover then these (Jagwire) are very good cables and look beautiful - box contains crimps, stops and even rubber to stop cable rub.

" Remarkably unsickly and easy to drink. Used it on a recent marmotte attempt and found it worked well. Far less 'sweet' than many competitors and so less feeling of drinking sticky dilute boiled sweet. The geek in me wonders whether some element of protein might help performance but otherwise good.
