    He should try something less contentious first,
    like who is wiser Jesus, Moses or Mohammed.

    Me, I'd vote for Zeus.

    Seems like a lot of effort to reach the obvious conclusion. Campy of course.

    Typical. He's already prefacing the answer with "it depends." No. Choose a ranking, back it up with pros and cons... including your subjective bias... especially cool/Schleck/fishing reel factor.

    I'm going to predict the result will be something like this:

    They all do things well, some do certain things better than others... in the end, buy what makes your heart happy as technology has gotten to the point where all are on equal footing once you strip away the nostalgia and/or bling factor...

    Exactly. How many times do you think "Red v Dura Ace v Record" gets googled in a day? I have a feeling RKP is good with the Google analytics, so I'd expect this is a win for them, whether there is an answer or not.
