The Campagnolo Record 12-speed
groupset is a highly advanced product from the renowned Italian manufacturer
Campagnolo, designed for ambitious road cyclists who value performance, precision, and reliability. It offers many of the cutting-edge technologies and materials found in the
Super Record groupset, but at a slightly more affordable price, without making significant compromises on performance.
The
shift and brake levers (Ergopower levers) of the Record 12-speed groupset are designed for optimal ergonomics and provide intuitive operation. The levers are shaped to ensure high comfort even on long rides or in race conditions. With the "One-Lever-One-Action" system, gears can be shifted quickly and precisely, while Campagnolo’s proven Ultra-Shift system allows for multiple gear shifts simultaneously. This offers significant advantages during steep climbs or in hectic racing situations.
The
rear derailleur and
front derailleur of the Record 12-speed groupset impress with their excellent shifting speed and reliability. Both components are made from a lightweight aluminum-carbon combination, keeping the weight low while ensuring high stiffness. The rear derailleur is designed to enable precise and fast gear changes, even under load.
The
crankset and the
chainrings are made from aluminum and carbon, providing high strength while maintaining low weight. Thanks to the "XPSS" technology (eXtreme Performance Shifting System), the Record 12-speed groupset ensures extremely precise and smooth shifting, even under heavy load. The design of the chainrings maximizes power transfer efficiency, offering a responsive riding experience.
The
Dual Pivot brakes of the Record groupset also deliver top-tier braking performance. They are made from a robust aluminum construction, providing powerful yet finely modulated braking that is optimally controllable in all conditions.
Overall, the Campagnolo Record 12-speed groupset offers a perfect balance of lightweight construction, efficiency, and reliability. It is an excellent choice for cyclists seeking high performance without incurring the highest costs of the Super Record groupset.
