    Jim if you do decide to go with the Campy Record C10 Ultra
    then please read this:

    As described in the instruction sheet, you have to use a
    high precision (0,01 mm resolution) caliper gauge to
    measure, in different points of the chain, the length
    between six links (as indicated in the figure on the
    instruction sheet) and if even one of the measurement is
    longer than 132.60 mm the chain must be replaced.

    Fab is strictly high tech. I am strictly low tech. If I
    were starting over again I would go out to Wal-Mart and get
    their special on sale bike for $55.00 and I would be more
    than happy with it. I know I could ride around the world
    with it too. The question for all of us to ponder is what
    is the level of happiness that corresponds with how much
    money we spend.

    I have always found that the best things in life are free.
    In fact, if I have to pay much for anything at all, I
    decline - knowing that the world is full of [censored] and price
    is never any object for the vast majority of mankind. Fab
    thinks he is happy with his high tech, expensive gear. But
    if you can be happy with low tech, inexpensive gear, then
    who is the wiser man? The happiness level is the same for
    both. I maintain that is better to be a happy fool than a
    perpetually unhappy wise man. And I know Fab is never really
    happy with all his high tech, expensive gear. That is
    because I know human nature!

    Tom, you would have made an excellent reference librarian. I
    was one of the worst reference librarians that ever was
    because I had no desire to be helpful to anyone. As a matter
    of fact, I was mostly [censored] when ever anyone would come
    to me for some help. I was booted out of the reference
    department when it was realized that I was not suited for
    the job.You can see that on this newsgroup also where I
    never have the slightest desire to help anyone with their
    problems. Screw it! If they are literate there is no reason
    why they can't solve their own quest for information.

    Slight differences in performance of different bikes simply
    doesn't interest me at all. Cycling beats walking. That is
    all I know and all I need to know. Let me repeat once again
    for all the dunderheads here - cycling beats walking.

    I don't use Campy stuff. Shimano works fine for me. For the
    price of one Campy group, I could have outfitted 3 trikes.
    Plus, lots of discarded bikes with lots of universal parts.
    Campy is way too proprietary and not worth it for what I do
    with bike parts and where I get them.
