I have a brand new Veloce front hub sitting in front of me right now. I
totally disagree with the blanket statement:
> Yes, the current low end Campy groups are junk.
It certainly is not as nice as my older Record hubs with ground races, but
it is most certainly as good as a Shimano 105 or ultegra. I will say that I
do not care for the newer Mirage der's that have the stamped steel outer
plate, but once again they work great. I don't really care who may make
parts for Campagnolo, so long as they work good and Campy honors their 3
year warranty does it really matter? Other companies have subbed out lots of
work for many years, why should we have an issue with Campy doing it too?
Think I'll go build some new wheels.....
