The general consensus at the time wad that Campy was born and raised on the road market, was trying to jump onto the mtn bike sector as the boat was already pulling away from the dock.

The stuff was OK as fat as it went, but Campy was too far behind the curve and tryin g to play catch up in a segment they didn't understand well.
