Campagnolo Athena 11 EPS Rear Derailleur

One level down from Chorus, Athena has the same precision in performance and superb quality that Campagnolo is known for at a price that won’t break the budget. It is the groupset that best marries Campy’s old world values, performance and style. Campagnolo tickled down it's renowned EPS technology to it's Athena level groupsets in a glorious fashion

The EPS (Electronic Power Shift) system allows for nearly flawless shifting. According to Campagnolo the EPS can seamlessly up shift and down shift all 11 gears on the cassette while the mechanical shifting only allowed for 5 down-shifting and 3 up-shifting. With electronic shifting the maintenance on the bicycle is reduced. And the biggest question may be, what happens if it gets wet? The EPS system is made with water proof electronics and Campagnolo claims the bicycle will still function even under 1 meter of water. How much is a nearly perfect shifting experience worth to you?
