Just buy shimano ,campy sounds nice but not better in any term and i wouldn t waste my money to duraace, ultegra is the best bang for bucks.

Wow, pretty cool! I can kind of see why they're often considered the Ferrari of cycles.

Mmm, lugged carbon fiber! Gorgeous frame, I’m kind of agreeing with some others here. Go with the Campagnolo groupset. I have Campy 9 speed one one of my bikes and Campy 10 speed on another. All Chorus on both. It is good stuff and has been bulletproof for many years and thousands of miles. Make sure to use a Campy chain with it though.

Unless you’re racing you aren’t going to gain any measurable advantage by going with Shimano or SRAM. Ultimately, it just comes down to personal preference.
