Agreed.  Even mountain bikes are being spec'd with 10 speed these
days.  Ridiculous!  But if your average recreational/sporting rider is
buying a new road bike, it might as well be 10spd because that
drivetrain is better supported in most shops.  And even if it is more
than what most people need, the new stuff works great and that counts
too.  I rode a new Ultegra 10spd drivetrain recently and was really
impressed - fast and precise shifting.  no fuss.  Same experience with
SRAM.  And Campy.
