The Campagnolo Chorus EPS groupset takes a great deal of its DNA from its mechanical counterpart as it represents a more accessible version of Campagnolo performance, quality and attention to detail but delivers it in the laser-like precision package of an EPS drivetrain. It's extremely powerful motors are capable of producing levels of torque without rival in electronic shifting which guarantee precise and effective shifting no matter the conditions or circumstances. Shifting even under heavy load is no problem for the Chorus EPS transmission and mud, grime and debris have met their match against such powerful motors. With an IP67 waterproof rating on the entire system rain gear is only necessary for the cyclist, not his groupset. The dérailleur is composed of a mechanical structure with dropout and a series of electronic parts. The outer Dérailleur Rod held in place by a double-finned pin that passes all the way through to increase rigidity. The System that links the dérailleur to the frame is made of aluminium co-pressed with the engineering polymer of the body of the dérailleur. This creates optimal solidity and rigidity ensuring that the dérailleur maintains a correct position with respect to the frame. The core of the dérailleur is composed of an electronic actuator; in turn composed of a gear motor with a built-in resolver that uses Magnetic Hall Sensor technology (as the sensor is not in contact it is not affected by the vibrations generated by the terrain, and is therefore always precise). The gear motor was developed in partnership with a Swiss company that produces electric motors used in missions to Mars. The actuator is also equipped with a ""cascade gearbox"" which allows movement to be transferred in an exact and rapid manner. AUTOMATIC CORRECTION: Compared to the traditional mechanical derailleur that could be adjusted with micro displacements made by acting on the levers manually, the EPS dérailleur is equipped with a very sophisticated electronic AUTOMATIC POSITION CORRECTION system. DTI: Digital Tech Intelligence is housed inside the Power Unit and it continuously monitors the signals that arrive from all the EPS components, thus managing their operation. WATERPROOF: In order to achieve the IP67 classification, all the electronic components of the EPS system underwent a series of tests, which proved their ability to function perfectly under one meter of water for at least 30 minutes.
In keeping with its philosophy and history, Campagnolo has gone even further, and created the triple crankset with the best ""U"" and ""Q"" factors in its class. This outstanding result offers tangible benefits to the rider: derailing speed and precision of a par with double drivetrains, and perfect hip-knee-foot alignment for maximum pedalling efficiency and maximum joint protection.
Painstaking work was carried out on the sprockets. The additional speed led Campagnolo to devising a new support structure for the last six sprockets in the two subsets. The form of the teeth is new and they have been treated to increase duration over time. Eleven sprockets that are even more efficient despite the reduction of the thicknesses? Campagnolo have succeeded. The teeth have been designed to optimize the speed and fluidity of shifting. This form reduces stress on the chain which ascends more easily onto the higher diameter sprockets. The large pinions are divided into sets of three and are mounted on a new aluminium frame. Thanks to this, rigidity increases 180% and the individual sprockets are 70% more resistant to torsion.
Designed to fit inside the bottom bracket shell between bb cups, to stop internal cables fouling and being damaged by the crank axle.
With so much talk of performance one may forget about the all-important aspect of control. The Potenza 11™ Ergopower controls maintain the fantastic ergonomics of the entire Campagnolo Revolution 11+ line offering a grip and control that is identical to the versions the professional riders demand. While the ergonomics have been maintained, the hypoallergenic silicon material hoods have been slightly altered in order to offer even better grip and comfort. The internal mechanism that permits the Power-Shift function has been modified and improved to offer not only increased performance but also unrivalled durability. Power-Shift permits one single downshift at a time and this function permits the incorporation of an internal lever on both left and right Ergopower controls that is identical to the widely appreciated ergonomic controls of the EPS controls. The downshifting action for the front derailleur is blocked at one click to avoid any issues of dropped chains. Upshifting is possible at up to three gears with one single action and the new Ergopower internal mechanism, together with the new front derailleur, make upshifting a nearly effortless action. A 3 click movement ensures greater efficiency in upshifting and a reduced range of motion necessary from the use
This Campagnolo Record 9 speed chain was designed to mate with Ultra-Drive sprockets and is an essential complement to them in order to get the best and intended performance from them and the entire Ultra-Drive drivetrains.
The 8 special upward zones and 2 downward zones for the chainrings associated to the speed and precision of the new EPS derailleur guarantee top performance. The gear motor was developed in partnership with a Swiss company that produces electric motors used in missions to Mars. The actuator is also equipped with a "cascade gearbox" which allows movement to be transferred in an exact and rapid manner.

Genuine Campagnolo Powershift Ergo brake lever hoods available in three colours: Red, White, Black.
Campagnolo lockrings, an often discussed and confusing subject, do they come with the cassette? Do they come with the wheel? Do you have to buy them separately? If you purchase any ratio cassette, the lockring is included. This lockring is specific for a 12T cog.
The Potenza 11™ front derailleur boasts an upper body that has a design nearly identical to that of the Super Record mechanical model complete with longer arm to ensure less effort required to derail to a larger gear. One of the only differences that can be immediately seen comes in the form of the newly developed one-piece steel cage with a similar shape to the Super Record version. Potenza 11™ is similar in design yet incorporates different materials to ensure derailing performance on par with Super Record.
