Topic: Shimano Ultegra R8000 vs Campagnolo Potenza groupset

Posted on: 3rd Feb 2019 1:49 PM    Quote and Reply

Hello Folks, I am building a bike based on Pinarello Dogma 65.1. The groupset I have in mind is either Ultegra 8000 or Campy Potenza. I have been riding an Ultegra 6800 for the last couple of years. I have never used a Campy groupset. But since these two groupsets are almost equally priced and I have slight inclination to fit an italian groupset on the italian frame I am exploring the Potenza. 

Campy users, what do you think of this comparison ? 
Who would be best guys to buy and install Campagnolo groupsets from ? Is it more complex to align and maintain a Campagnolo groupset ? Almost every bike shop knows how to handle Shimano groupsets, so if Campy requires special tools and skills to maintain then I need to know.

Please suggest.
