Paul and Shane discuss one of the most esteemed brands in cycling, the Italian component maker, Campagnolo. Aside from their near life-long experience with the brand, their relationship was deepened by a factory visit to Campagnolo in Vicenza, Italy this past July. Campagnolo has one of the most decorated histories in cycling. Today they continue to make strides and not only stay relevant, but at the front of road cycling worldwide.
