Campagnolo Chorus 12-speed Ergopower filled

CHORUS DISC BRAKE
New Chorus DB 12-speed groupset: the Campagnolo product that combines racing performance with the needs of Endurance.

Designed for unforgettable outings where the entire day is spent in the saddle, the specific combinations of the Chorus 2x12 make it a versatile, simple and high performance groupset, however it's used: from Granfondo rides to adventurous Sunday spins to quick blasts on the bike after work.

The new Chorus DB groupset is launched on the market to expand the range of innovative technological solutions already provided by 12-speed groupsets. The new Chorus DB 12-speed groupset is available with the specific 48/32 and 11-34 combinations, suitable for those who spend hours and hours on the saddle on mixed terrain, while maintaining the racing performance guaranteed by every Campagnolo groupset. As per tradition, the use of different materials and consequent little additional weight, together with a rear derailleur redesigned to house larger cassettes are the main elements that make this new Chorus 12-speed different from the Super Record 12-speed and Record 12-speed groupsets.

CHORUS ERGOPOWER DISC BRAKE CONTROLS
The fantastic ergonomics that over the years have become a sort of calling card for Campagnolo have been even further improved with the latest introduction of Super Record and Record 12-speed transmissions. Not just ergonomic but also customizable, the new standard is embodied in the design of the Chorus levers. Apart from the brake lever, constructed in aluminum but with a coating that enhances its finish and feel, Chorus Ergopower are almost identical to those on the Super Record and Record controls. The new design of the brake lever hoods, brake lever and bigger gear levers, together with the Ergopower control “reach” that can be adjusted to suit hands of different sizes, make these new components unique and versatile.

Campagnolo’s tried and tested one-lever-one-action philosophy prevents unintentional shifts, even during tense competition or due to tiredness. The internal Ultra-Shift mechanism controls the 12-speed rear derailleur, letting the rider shift up by up to 3 sprockets and down by up to 5 sprockets in a single movement. Chorus controls deliver the same extremely durable, soft shifting performance of the other 12-speed groupsets thanks to new cables and their housings.

Weight: 488 g

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Comfortable support
The controls offer good, safe grip when standing pedaling or when leaning high on the handlebars.

Quick shifting
When the chain engages immediately, the front and rear derailleurs can be actioned with minimum effort and in any position on the handlebars.

Multishifting
An unexpected climb, a sudden sprint: instantly finding the right combination takes no time at all thanks to the multiple action guaranteed by Ultra-Shift technology.

Ergonomics
haped cushioning and an adjustable reach make these controls perfect for any cyclist, regardless of hand or finger size


CALIPER CAMPAGNOLO
Campagnolo brake calipers: powerful, modulable and reliable.

The flat-mount Campagnolo brake calipers ensure powerful, modular braking in any situation owing to pistons measuring 22 millimetres in diameter. The pad return is now optimised to ensure that there is no friction when the brake lever is released. A special metal plate positioned between the pad and the caliper piston, cushions the vibrations during braking.

The different Campagnolo brake calipers were designed to be mounted together with the disc chosen by the rider and to always guarantee the highest level of performance. It is indeed possible to choose the brake caliper with a disc measuring either 140 mm (limited to cyclists weighing no more than 82 kg) or 160 mm in diameter. Careful attention was given to making maintenance and assembly operations easy: the pads have wear indicators and replacing them is facilitated by the absence of physical return springs. Additionally, work was done on the insertion of the disc in the caliper to make changing the wheel easier and faster.

Weight: 118 g (140 mm, pads included)

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Standard Flat Mount
Fully compatible with flat-mount frames.

22 mm pistons in phenolic resin
Braking force and thermal isolation.

Piston-calliper connector
The return action of the pistons is now optimised, rapidly returning the pads to their position and thus ensuring an overall clearance between pad and disc of 0.4-0.8 mm, with no risk of accidental contact.

Interchangeable spare parts: pads, cylinder, screws, bolts (same for all callipers)
Fully compatible and optimised spare parts, making maintenance practical and reducing the number of components to keep on hand in the warehouse.

Wear indicator
It is very easy to see when the pads need to be replaced.

Rounded brake pads
These facilitate disc insertion and speed up wheel changing.

Anti-vibration plate
Optimal braking without vibrations.

Two fixing screws
Rapid installation and maintenance.
