Component Levels...

[chispa60]

Hey folks,

I was wondering if there was a list of components sets showing low end to high end. It can be as general as listing which companies make better components over other companies or as specific as one set of components from Shimano versus one set of components from another company.

I realize that this can be a big task if you really wanted to get down to it, but I'm just looking at generalities. And yes, I realize that higher priced component sets usually offer several advantages (weather resistance, lighter, smoother, etc). And I also realize that some companies may make components sets of different ranges (similar to various bike companies).

I'd really apprecitate it.
