This has become a more legitimate question in recent times. There was a time when things like Sora and Tiagrawere just so bad that no such argument could be made.

For the purposes of this thread, I’m thinking 105, Rival, or Chorus approximately.
That determination makes even less sense once you think about mountain bike and gravel groups.
Let’s say mid tier, stuff that’s nice enough that the companies would give it their full effort, even if it’s not their best stuff.
