Shimano Grouppos
At the Bike Café, we like Shimano grouppos; they are tried and true. The one drawback is that the components cannot easily be rebuilt. Dura-Ace is the Pro race quality grouppo. Ultegra is race quality. And 105 is the entry-level grouppo. The main difference between them is weight. Dura-Ace is the lightest, and 105 is the heaviest.
Please call for pricing on individual components.
