Ever thought you'd been screwed buying Campagnolo gear?

Aye - might actually be worth buying if they were solid! Would probably make a crap corkscrew, however..

Not as good as my Hope bottle opener.

I'll wait for the electronic version, thanks.

I‘d be looking for a corkscrew and ~60 bottles of good wine for $2,000.

Campagnolo bottle openers wear-in, ShimaNo bottle openers wear-out....

 

[Cycleops]

Always thought their logo reproduced on the top very uninspiring and boring.
