Di2 shifting is very slow compared to analog. They're claiming that their [Campagnolo's] electronic is faster than analog.
I'd like to see that claim backed up with some testing, since analog is virtually 0.000 seconds by the simple concept of: once you pull on a cable, that cable is pulling on something and mechanical system are direct actions, not delayed.
...some feedback on this would be most wonderful as I don't have a clue how to guage the correctness of the observations made in the above quote ...ie is one electrically powered system in fact faster than the other system and how do they compare to purely mechanical systems

Movistar have been the crash test dummies on this new Campag electronic system so there has to be some truth to it.
I hope they have thrashed it as much as possible for campag to get a true idea of its ability and reliability.
