The last SRM 5 bolt Campagnolo power meters I had I put a sweet 30,000 miles on it! And the bearings still rolled as smooth as ever. Actually the BB cups started to show wear on the black anodizing, way before.
I only used the $20 Campy Allen tool to remove the cranks and clean them/lubricate them, every few weeks.
I did purchase a Park Tool bearing remover, but ended up giving it away to a friend that does mobile bike mechanics... Never used it! I'd figure, I normally would sell a Campy crank-set before it ever wears out.

Yes, you are.

Campagnolo's best products are the high-end carbon wheels. They aren't innovative - just very well executed using very good individual components that, as a system, work as well or better than anything else on the market.
In the same vein, they need to get wireless EPS out there ...

My Campy 'Movement' Wish List:
- Wireless
- 1 x12 (with same gear ratios as 2 x 11)
- Bring back Threaded BB's
- A little more affordability please (here in the UK you can buy SRAM Red eTap for £700 less than Campy Record EPS... that's a heck of a big jump to justify)

Biggest wish: a movement to normal pricing
Campagnolo teasing something special and it turning out to be a 1x12 would be extremely disappointing. Having just brought out the H11 groupsets I can't believe they'll go and obsolete them with a 12 speed as nothing else would be compatible with it. And if you want a 1x chainring then just don't fit the inner ring and remove the front derailleur! Wireless is possible but what I would love to see is a Campagnolo integrated power meter. I'm not sure they could just release that to market without anyone having seen one in public and been tested on a pro bike. But then pro teams riding Campag tend to be riding P2M in the main. But the teasers and movement don't really relate to power. They're sure to be working on a power meter though.
