Having ridden Shimano and SRAM prior to this, I prefer the Campy brake lever feel over both of those. It's super adjustable. You can do the brake lever reach and shift lever reach separately. I think the shift lever throw and feel on the Potenza could use a little more feedback. There's sort of a dead zone when shifting, before the derailleurs move. Lot's of lever sweep to get the shift to happen and not enough feedback letting you know it's done.

Yeah, I've been curious about the Campy hydro/disc groups, but I just haven't had the chance to ride them, and also have gotten used to SRAM and come to like the shift action and performance. It makes me sad, since I used to basically only ride Campagnolo. Maybe the Chorus and Record groups perform better? Still, their aesthetics are a big improvement over the last two generations of components.

I just replaces a SRAM Force 1 setup on my backup CX bike with Campy. I got sick of SRAM brakes even though I like the shift action. My levers wouldn't return to the top of the stroke or the pads would drag, a problem I've had before. I went crazy and swapped with some H-11 levers that were on crazy sale and a used Record derailleur. The new setup has a lot more shifter feedback than Potenza and the same amazing brake lever feel. The downshift (thumb) button on the Potenza is placed better than the H-11 levers, IMO. No multi downshifts but just better ergos and a softer actuation. Both feel great, just different shifter feel. The brakes though... are amazing.
