Besides distinguishing themselves for their unparalleled quality and performance, Campagnolo products have also become the benchmark of design. This is testified by the prestigious Compasso d'Oro award granted by the Associazione Design Italiano in recognition of the Veloce groupset, Ergopower integrated controls and Shamal high-profile wheels. Campagnolo is not only involved in the cycling world, but dedicates itself to all sports in general. In fact, it was named by the Wall Street Journal as one of the most prominent sports brands in the world. A reputation earned not only as a result of the countless successes achieved in racing competitions, but also by virtue of the attention given to quality and to service that sets this company apart from all others.
Throughout the history of Campagnolo the Record group has accompanied champion after champion to the top step of the podium and this modern version lives up to its prestigious reputation. Mechanical shifting from Campagnolo pushes the limits of weight, supreme performance and durability. Lightweight construction, shifting performance precise enough to surprise even the most demanding professional rider, and durable to the point that you’ll need a new frame before you need a new group Campagnolo Record represents an investment in a long term performance advantage.
The "one lever-one action" system remains as does the Ultra-Shift system the only available mechanical shifting system that allows for multiple down shifts ( up to three gears at a time in up shifting and 5 in down shifting).
This heightened performance and functionality comes along with improvements to what is arguably the most comfortable and ergonomic command on the market as well.
While difficult to improve upon the fantastic feel of the Ergopower command the internal side of the unit has been modified in such a way that it adapts itself even more closely to the wide array of handlebars available thus conferring greater comfort and control.
ERGONOMICS
The shape of the body conforms to your hands perfectly.
The body of the control reproduces exactly the asymmetry of the human hand. This increases the contact with the palm and allows for various riding positions, ensuring maximum safety in all riding positions.
COMFORT
The shape allows you to easily reach the levers, regardless of your riding position and the size of your hands.
The studies conducted on the position of cyclists' hands, showed three different steering positions depending on the course and the steering style. Based on these studies, Campagnolo® created the particular and exclusive form of the Ergopower™ controls that enable you to steer with safety and comfort. The Vari-Cushion™ system is the shock absorber that envelops the body of the controls.
The particular geometry of the hoods made of material of variable density, stretchy and hypoallergenic, absorbs vibrations, enabling you to stay in the saddle for many hours without hand fatigue.
EFFECTIVE BRAKING
The lever's Ultra-Shift™ shape lets you squeeze the brakes with greater power.
In particular, it allows you to brake powerfully and promptly when the hands are gripping high up. This is a plus that will allow professionals to chat with greater peace of mind before getting on with the serious business.
