  1. To my knowledge Shimano and Campangolo are the only manufacturers of full road groups. I know also that Mavic stopped selling their Mektronic group and that Miche sells a full group call Primato that includes campagnolo's chorus shifters.

    Does anybody knows any other company that manufactures full road groupsets?

    thank you.

  2. If I were you I wouldn't buy any other full groupset to put on my bike. Shimano and Campagnolo are very good quality. If your just a tourist I would suggest buying Shimano (it's slightly cheaper than campagnolo). And the answer to your question: I don't know any other company that makes full group sets, maybe Mahoshi or something like that

    Don't know about full groupos, but there are a lot of high-quality non-Shimano/non-Campy components available. I recently got a new frame, and spec'd as many US-made components as possible....Reynolds fork, FSA BB & crankset, Ritchey bar and stem, Thomson post, Velomax wheels. Went with Shimano shifters and derailleurs, since I didn't find any other US manufacturers for these.

    I like world-class competition, and don't see the need to pass all my business to the giants.
