Introduction

Cycling has done more than I would have thought possible to improve my level of fitness and overall health. I've always ridden bikes, but started training for time trials competition back in 1978. The older I get, the more glad I am that I did.

I'm flying the Campagnolo logo on this page because I've been using their components since 1978 and have nothing but praise for them. There is no company in any other industry I know of whose products stand so high above those of their competitors in terms of engineering, materials, finish quality, reliability and parts availability the way Campagnolo does. A bicycle that's fitted with their parts is more responsive and more satisfying to ride, and will far outlive anything less. And if you ever need parts for any Campagnolo components, you'll be able to buy them. Yes, Shimano makes fishing reels, but did you know that Campagnolo manufactures the transaxle housings for the Ferrari Formula One team?

Below you'll find links to many companies in the bicycle industry. Many of them have been around for a long time, and as far as I know they all make decent stuff.
