According to Lennard it's "an irritatingly common occurrence".

Maybe if they used special Campagnolo non-stretch shifter cables it

Campagnolo Ergo wires stick one's palm as they start to fray, well

Which version/models/years are you referring to? I rode Campagnolo Chorus 9Sp for many years, never had that experience.
The wire path is on the outside and the capstan spools under the lever, so fraying starts at the outside bottom of your palm and although not painful it's noticeable.
Is that on the older 9sp stuff as well?
