Campagnolo Record 12 Speed 8 PC Groupset BB & Cassette Included

The new mechanical Ergopower Record 12x2 Speed Rim Brake controls: aesthetically pleasing and functional.

The new carbon unidirectional levers lend the Record Rim Brake controls an air of power, stiffness and reliability. These new controls allow riders to select two different lever-handlebar positions spaced to adapt to the size of the hand, whilst keeping braking efficiency constant. This is accomplished through the new angle of the up-shifting lever that prevents any possible contact with the curve of the handlebar. The position of the lever is adjusted by acting directly on the controls in a simple and safe manner.

The Vari-Cushion technology offers an ergonomic, comfortable and safe support and grip. The "one lever-one action" feature assigns each lever one function to prevent shifting errors. The Ultra-Shift mechanism enables upshifting up to three sprockets at a time and downshifting a full five. The new Record 12x2 Speed Rim Brake levers introduce a double curvature to improve grip and thus safety.

Comfortable support -Vari-Cushion

The controls enable a solid, safe grip when pedalling out of the saddle or gripping high on the handlebar.

Rapid shifting

Immediate shifting engagement enables activating the front derailleur with minimum effort and in any hand position on the handlebar.

Multiple action -Ultra-Shift

An unplanned ascent, a sudden jerk: it takes barely a moment to find the right ratio owing to the multiple action of the controls.

Ergonomic

The shape of the body and the possibility to adjust the reach enable all cyclists to use these controls, regardless of the size of their hands or fingers.

Brake lever with double curvature

Offers maximum safety from any position, due to both the curvature of the handlebar and the controls.

New mechanical Record 12 Speed rear derailleur: precision, lightness and versatility.

Designed to improve performance and function in every aspect, the new Record 12 Speed mechanical rear derailleur has an innovative shape that envelopes the sprockets better thanks to 3D Embrace technology, creating a double effect: allowing the chain to maintain optimum traction at all times, thus increasing the speed, power and precision of shifting; and ensuring that the derailleur is always kept an optimal distance away from the sprockets.

The cage has also been optimized to work with sprockets from 11 to 32 teeth, allowing a single version to be maintained for all available sprocket sets. The upper part of the new Record 12 Speed mechanical rear derailleur gearbox is made of carbon fibre-reinforced technopolymer, contributing to its robustness and lightness, while the stop adjustment screws at the back of the rear derailleur make adjustments very simple.

Constant accuracy

On bumpy roads, the spring between the upper body and the joint absorbs the vibrations, ensuring the chain's optimal support on the sprockets.

The 12-tooth wheels mean smoother chain movement.

Possibility of adjusting the initial derailleur position to optimally adapt to each sprocket set.

Easy wheel replacement.

The rearward action of the rear derailleur makes it easier to remove and replace the wheel.

The new mechanical Record 12x2 Speed derailleur: speed, dexterity, precision and effectiveness.

The Campy Tech Lab designers focused on functionality, performance and compatibility when redesigning the new front derailleur. The new Record mechanical 12x2 Speed derailleur reveals various technical innovations; starting with the leverage system, which is designed to speed up shifting. Less effort is required for shifting thanks to the split front link rod, which avoids contact with the travel limit screw, and the shape of the inner cage plate, designed to match the new 12 speed chain's characteristics.

The micro-adjustments to the front derailleur position (which can be activated by the controls) make it possible to avoid any chain contact, even in cases of maximum crossing. The plate positioned on the aluminium outer cage prevents the chain from escaping when upshifting and increases speed in the downshift phase, as well as creating a quieter transmission.

As far as compatibility is concerned, the new Record 12x2 Speed front derailleur allows tyres up to 32mm thanks to the new upper connecting rod and the double fixing of the cablex.

Forged aluminium construction and steel screws.

The new Record 12x2 Speed crankset: a new hole-free design for the right hand crank that optimises aerodynamics.

The new carbon fibre Record 12x2 Speed crankset with unidirectional finishing guarantees continuity with the finishings of the entire groupset, whilst maintaining the Ultra-Torque bracket system on the steel axle to ensure perfect transmission of power. The new Record 12x2 Speed crankset can be installed on any type of frame, whether or not it is being used with disc brakes because it optimises the chain line on the frame with a rear hub flange measuring 130, 135 or 142 millimetres, without affecting the Q factor that remains constant at 145.5 millimetres.

The innovative design of the outer chainring ensures faster, quieter derailing owing to the contoured pin. The symmetrical design of the inner chainring teeth allows improved stability with chain crossovers.

The double wheel sizing standards (112 and 145 millimetres) enable reducing the weight through greater use of carbon fibre. There are eight fixing screws for increased structure stiffness. The varying number of pins for each of the three chainring combinations (34/50, 36/52, 39/53) facilitates upshifting due to the optimised free strokes associated with each combination. The special drains on the inside of the outer chainrings optimise performance when downshifting in dead spots.

New design, same dimensions

Compatible with all frame systems, regardless of the width of the rear chainstay.

Unchanged Q Factor (145.5)

New Record 12 Speed sprocket cassettes: innovation which gives the user great advantages, thanks to the matching dimensions and complete compatibility with wheels and frames.

The rider has always been Campagnolo's focus, and the goal has always been facilitating their performance; making the impossible possible. Adding an additional sprocket might seem simple, however we have not only succeeded in maintaining the same footprint, but also improving the component's performance and durability, which was a tricky challenge!

The new Record 12 Speed sprocket sets feature thinner sprockets, tighter spaces and space-saving dimensions that are the same as those of the 11 Speed sprockets, meeting everyone's needs with just two (11:29); (11:32) cassettes. The addition of the twelfth sprocket allows a linear upshift or downshift by a single tooth, up to the seventh gear, allowing the cyclist to find the perfect ratio for any situation.

In addition, the closer sprockets ensure faster, quieter and more precise shifting thanks to the special tooth design and surface treatment which guarantees a longer life span. The 6 larger sprockets are also available in two single-piece steel triplets, to avoid energy loss. Mounting the cassettes is easy thanks to matching-thickness spacers.
