This is probably not a big deal to many of you, but the shifting on my 
Roadeo frameset is a lot better than my bikes with shorter chainstays. I 
use a TA Zephyr 48-34 crank with a 12-25 cassette, with Campy Centaur 
components. All the mechanical parts related to the drivetrain seem to last 
much longer than my other bikes. I have come to the conclusion that long 
chainstays help with lessening the severe angles of cross chaining and less 
friction. I have about  12k +or- miles on the drivetrain and I am on my 
third chain, a cheap KMC, with about 3000miles on it. Even my cassettes 
seem to last forever. I ride the hell out this bike, lots of hills, crappy 
pavement, you name it. I do take very care of the bike and clean the chain 
and cassette frequently.
