10 speed - Record, Chorus, and Centaur
First, they moved from square tapered bottom brackets to external "UT" bottom brackets. Cranks made in 2006 or before will NOT fit the new external bottom brackets. To continue using older parts you will need to mesh pre '07 cranks and bottom brackets only to each other. Second, Campagnolo moved to faster shifting left shift levers. These are designated on the left Ergo lever with a QS which stands for Quick Shift. The QS levers are only compatible with QS front derailleurs. If you are using Ergo levers made in 2006 or before then you must use the pre-QS Ergo levers and pre-QS front derailleurs together. Hubsets were also changed for 2007. But, the older hubs are completely compatible with current cassettes and drive chains. We try to maintain a good stock of pre-2007 parts so those that prefer to keep their older parts running can do so. See below.
|
 | Both Record and Chorus have dual pivot fronts with single pivot rears to save weight and even out braking action |
| Record comes in black or silver while Chorus and Centaur are silver only |
| All three models come with recessed brake bolts. |
| Pads adjust from 40-50mm (center of brake bolt hole to center of rim) |
| 308 gram Record includes titanium hardware |
| 340 gram Chorus includes stainless hardware |
| 376 gram Centaur is dual pivot front and rear and pivot bolt is visible rather than hidden |
Brakes are priced per pair, front and rear included.
Centaur
Gray rear derailleur ~ The 2006 line featured a special gray anodized rear derailleur that works in all Campagnolo 10 speed setups, both before and after 2006. It works with cassettes up to 26 teeth. This is an excellent derailleur for riders that prefer a real classic look.
2006
Square Tapered Bottom Brackets ~ The Chorus bottom bracket spindle is 102mm long (center) and fits either Record or Chorus square tapered cranks (all Chorus and Record cranks made BEFORE 2007). The Record bottom bracket (on left) uses a carbon composite shell that drops 32 grams in weight from the 227 gram Chorus BB. The Centaur BB (right in pic) is 11 grams heavier than Chorus. As it is 111mm long, it can only be used with Centaur and Veloce cranks, not Record or Chorus. A Campagnolo or Shimano BB/cassette tool is used to install or remove any of the three bottom brackets, available here: Tools
All models and sizes in stock now!
Veloce Square Tapered Bottom Brackets ~ Also known as the AC-H bottom bracket, Veloce BBs are available 111mm long to fit both Centaur and Veloce double chainring cranksets and 115.5mm long to fit Veloce and Centaur triple cranksets. To save weight, the cromoly spindle is hollow (hence the H in AC-H). Available in either 68mm English thread or 70mm Italian thread .... $64.99 Add to CART
Cups are installed and removed by the inexpensive Park 6-indents bottom bracket tool available here: Tools
2006 Square Tapered
Aluminum Cranksets
~ The Chorus crank is cold forged of very clean and consistently grained light aluminum alloy and weighs just 647 grams yet it is extremely strong and dependable. The pedal hole is pierced during construction for much greater strength than drilling. The 5th spider arm is milled right out of the main crankarm for more strength and beauty. The Record crank (on left) is just like the Chorus except that it adds light alloy fixing bolts as well as a new surface treatment to the chainrings for even greater durability. The Centaur crank (on right) has all 5 spider arms visible.
| Chorus and Record require 102mm Chorus or Record tapered bottom bracket (see above) |
| Centaur crank requires 111mm Centaur or Veloce tapered bottom bracket (see above) |
| 170, 172.5, and 175mm lengths, plus 180 in Record |
| 53 x 39t chainrings on all models |
| Record aluminum crank = 632 grams |
| Chorus aluminum crank = 647 grams |
| Centaur aluminum crank = 660 grams |
All cranksets feature 53x39 tooth "Ultra-Drive" 10 speed chainrings with precisely machined teeth and ramps for smooth and fast shifting.
Chorus 172.5 has sold out. Only Record is available in 180mm.
2006
Square Tapered Carbon Cranksets ~ Over 5 years in development and testing, the Campagnolo Carbon cranks are a masterpiece of modern cycling technology. Weighing nearly a pound less than the already very light Record AL crank, the Carbon crank is truly a stunning work of art as well as the finest performing crank on the market. These cranks use Multidirectional Carbon Fiber (MDCF), a new composite technology recently introduced in the aerospace industry. MDCF distributes the carbon fiber in all directions for greatly increased strength. For even greater security, Unidirectional Carbon Fiber (UDCF) has been judiciously positioned to further enhance the already outstanding mechanical performance of these beautiful cranks. Weight is just 500 grams.
| Record carbon crank = 500 grams .... $439.99 |
| Chorus carbon crank = 515 grams .... $389.99 |
| Centaur carbon crank = 583 grams .... sold out in all sizes |
Apart from the label, the Record and Chorus crankarms are exactly the same. The only difference is in the chainrings. The Record rings have a new treatment that increases resistance to wear and tear. Centaur uses Chorus chainrings and the crankarms are the same except they fit only the 111 mm Centaur bottom bracket. Record and Chorus fit both Record and Chorus bottom brackets.
Available in traditional 53 x 39 or compact. Sizes and models not listed are no longer available. Add to CART
2006
Front Derailleurs ~These front derailleurs work with all Campagnolo Pre-2007 shift levers - 9 and 10 speed. Combined with Campagnolo machined chainrings and proper adjustment, the Chorus front derailleur (on left) will provide nearly countless miles of fast, trouble free shifting. The Record model is 5 grams lighter as it uses an extra stiff and fast carbon fiber outer cage plate. Centaur (on right), uses less fancy finishing bolts and weighs 11 grams more than Chorus.
FIT: Brazed on front derailleurs are used when
your frame has a corresponding hanger
(pictured on right) permanently
attached to the frame. They are also used with
Clamp-on Adapters. To
determine correct clamp size, carefully measure the outside diameter of your frame's
seat tube at the level of the top of your large chainring.
Tip: All Campy 10 speed front derailleurs work on 9 speed setups. Just unclip the plastic insert on the front of the outer cage plate to widen the cage.
Available for both regular (53 x 39) chainrings and compacts (generally 50 x 34). Sizes not listed are no longer available. Add to CART
In 2007 Campagnolo made two important changes that effect compatibility.
