Mirage & Veloce

[Paul Westall]

Has anyone in the group put a fair number of miles on the lower end Campy groupos? How did they
work, were they durable? Especially interested to hear about the mirage components. Paul

About 8100 miles on Veloce ergo levers, derailleurs, brake calipers, cogset. Holding up really well.
I have a mix of Chorus/Athena/other for other components, so can't comment on Veloce there.

Both of my sets of plastic levers, Mirage and Record work the same and I see little reason that one
would be more durable than the other.

The shifter guts are the same, durability not a problem.

The Mirage brake levers are more flexible than the aluminum or carbon ones. They work but it
increases brake mush a little. I would go for Veloce over Mirage for this reason, but I wouldn't say
the Mirage ones suck either.
