Been using Chorus 11 for more than a year now and really like it. There are downsides – the chaintool, if you buy it, is ludicrously expensive, but Park do a rivetting thing which is the important bit, for 30 quid or so. You can get away with running a KMC ten-speed link in an emergency – I carry a couple and a bit of 11-speed chain. It is slightly too wide, but it'll run and shift just fine fwiw. You can get Campag Chorus 11 chains on eBay for around £30-£35 squid.
Chorus 11-speed spares are ruinously expensive, dunno about Athena, but check the prices – Chorus cassette is around £120 or so… then again, road stuff lasts a lot longer. Campag have 11-speed spec crank bearings for some reason, but the standard 10-speed ones fit and work just fine and are about a million quid cheaper.
Overall I'm really happy with mine – clean, positive shifts, good brakes and I like the shape of the hoods. I used a socket set with an extension thingee to fit the cranks. Oh, for some reason, a lot of people try to stick the big bolt in the middle of the crank axle the wrong way round and are then surprised when it falls out, so think about what half the threaded one is and fit the bolt accordingly 🙂
