By the way, if you really are the pope, how come you don't run Campy on your bike? I'm thinking you aren't really the pope. The pope would only ride an Italian bike with proper Campagnolo components on it. It just stands to reason. I mean, would a Zen master on Mount Fuji use anything other than Shimano? Of course not.
So if the pope runs Campy, and the Zen master runs Shimano, what eminent spiritual personage would run the components you've got? He'd have to be American, i.e. fat, loud and annoying, so I'm thinking probably this guy:

You know a lot of guys named Fred or something? What's this fixation on guys named Fred all about? How about women named Fredericka? You care about them, too? Probably not many of them left nowadays. At least outside of Germany, anyway.

I went Sram, but I'll never go Campy, for multiple reasons.

Incorrect. Sram redesigned its components. Campy is farked for multiple reasons.

stole your bike
well I'll be....never thought I'd see the day you'd put SRAM on your bike. Red is nice especially the shifters for the reasons you stated. I'm waiting for my Rival shifters to die before I upgrade to Red shifters on the Orbea then replace the crank to Force when it goes.

I'd like to know who does pick out your furniture. The bench, the hall table, and in the other room what looks like a mahogany drop leaf claw foot table. Dang, Ms. Pcad has nice taste!!

Considering your post count and the number of pics you've posted of bikes, you'd think you'd have this sort of thing figured out.
Correct pedal position, ring and cog selection, find a decent garage door, and repost...
