  History!!
Because the mystique of Campagnolo -- part of the attraction of the world's finest cycling components, derives from the history and tradition that started on a cold day in the Italian Dolomites, some 70 years ago.
Coppi rode Campagnolo's first rod-shifter derailleur in the 1945 Paris-Roubaix race, and later used Tullio's components to ride to victory in the 1950 Paris-Roubaix.
Campagnolo asked who was going to win the championship.

 Campagnolo Timeline
Campagnolo opens a factory in Bologna to manufacture superlight magnesium wheels for autos and motorcycles, as well as lightweight military and aerospace parts.
Campagnolo parts could appear in stores or on bikes before ever appearing in a catalog or, on the other hand, were not necessarily available at the time a catalog was issued.
The original "Open C" style Campagnolo logotype (imagine a U turned on its side) on the Q.R. levers was changed to a "closed C" in 1958 with the introduction of the one-piece alloy Record hubs and a little later to the shift levers.

Everyone who is waiting for Campagnolo to blow its competition out of the water with a production version of the Record electronic shifting system that has been in development for the last four years or so is going to have to be patient a while longer.
Campagnolo found very early in the development of Record Electric that shoving a chain from one chainring to another needed a lot of force.
Campagnolo's original big idea was the wheel quick release, but it's hard to imagine getting very excited about a new QR design (and anyway, Campagnolo's 2006 wheels feature the very tidy quick release found on Fulcrum wheels).

 PPOLNews Is Bicycle News: Competition, Products, Technology, Industry and Advocacy!
The reason Campagnolo remains faithful to this technology, is that forging maintains the micro-crystalline structure of the aluminium alloy unchanged and this is the main factor in the life of a component.
This is not the case with CNC machining which, on the one hand, makes it possible to realize lighter components with attractive forms, on the other hand it breaks the structure of the alloy and makes the component more vulnerable to the phenomena of cracking and breaking with fatigue.
Campagnolo's engineers therefore realized a single-fulcrum brake to modulate braking at the rear and prevent dangerous locking of the back wheel even in emergency situations.

 1989 Denti with Campagnolo Euclid
The Italians finally recognized that this mountain bike thing might be for real and figured they should try to get a piece of the pie.
