How do you like the shifting on the 11 speed?
Mine is OK, but not as good as my old 10 Speed record, or my Dura Ace.
Occasionally, I have to help with an up shift and occasionally with a down-shift while under power. It normally happens when I need it most, like trying to close a gap to getting into a break, or just when I think I am going to be dropped from the wheel in front of me.

It's not set up properly then. I never have to do that with my chorus, which uses the same internals in the shifter. I've never had a shimano shifter that didn't need help under load.

This is what Campy says: "It is a problem with the Colnago C60 rear derailleur hanger angle, Colnago knows about it.
This is what Colnago says: "Campy is just saying that because they cannot do their job properly. Our rear derailleur hanger in perfectly in spec."
What I have done is adjusted now in favor of a down shift and learn't to over-shift slightly on the up-shift. My Dura Ace is perfect and precise, never fails. My old 10 speed record is close and pretty good.

With so many super record groups functioning properly I'm inclined to blame adjustment or your frame before campy

I'm on Record 11, and mine shifts perfectly no issues. Same with my Athena 11 on my other bike

I recently upgraded to a Chorus 2015 gruppo on my Moots and it shifts better than the 2013 Record gruppo on my Alchemy. I'm seriously thinking about upgrading to the 2015 Record on the Alchemy.

I got it, shifts precise and perfect now. Not sure what the problem was, but cleaned all the Campag gunk grease of the chain, took the rear deraileur apart and cleaned it, all in Kerosene. The rear derailleur bushings (The ones that turn if one pulls on the chain) appeared a little tight, so I lubricated them with light sewing machine oil. Chain lubricated with Dupont Chain saver. Put everything back together and not one miss today on a 45 mile ride.

Lube is key!!! Strange how Campy and Colnago can't play nice!
