Online Campagnolo Record 2×12-speed Disc Shift/Brake Lever

The shape and functionality of the new hydraulic Campagnolo Record Ergopower 12-speed Disc Brake Controls stem from meticulous studies carried out to guarantee the most efficient and effective ergonomics possible.

New mechanical Ergopower 12X2 Speed Record Disc Brake controls: comfort, control, speed, reactivity

The new mechanical Ergopower 12×2 Speed Record Disc Brake controls take full advantage of the widely respected, proven Campagnolo technologies and have become indispensable for those who are in the saddle for extended periods. One such technology is Vari-Cushion, which offers an ergonomic, comfortable and safe support and grip. There is also the “one lever-one action” feature that 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. Furthermore, the new mechanical Ergopower 12×2 Record Disc Brake controls offer lever adjustability that utilises Reach Adjustment to move the brake lever closer to the low grip, thus adapting to the different hand sizes. AMS Adjustment allows modulating the moment of shift engagement through the use of specific levers. The carbon fibre brake levers feature a unidirectional disposition of the fibre to ensure they match seamlessly with the other components of the groupset.

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.

The twelfth sprocket heralds a new era for mechanical groupsets, allowing cyclists to achieve levels of versatility that have never been reached before, matched with Campagnolo’s typical quality and reliability. The design of the new Record™ 12×2 Speed groupset originated from a blank canvas, redesigning all components to improve their performance, while maintaining the same overall dimensions to retain full compatibility with the frames and wheels on the market. The 12-speed chain, with a thinner design than the previous one, has a life span equal to or longer than the 11-speed model. The crankset has been completely redesigned, with the aim of being effective even with wider chain crossings; the rear derailleur has a rocker arm capable of supporting sprockets of up to 32 teeth. The front derailleur has been lightened to reduce overall dimensions, while maintaining its effectiveness on different frames and types of bicycles. The hydraulic disc brake system is a further addition to all this, offering power and braking modulability without sacrificing ease of wheel maintenance and shifting, thanks to the introduction of a few technical measures.

Features – Campagnolo Record 2×12 Disc Ergopower Control + Caliper

• Comfortable body 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 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
• Standard Flat Mount Fully compatible with flat-mount frames
• 22 mm pistons in phenolic resin Braking force and thermal isolation
• Piston-caliper 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

Technologies

One Lever-One Action
The EPS system CONTROL levers are positioned and act according to the same logic as Campagnolo mechanical gear levers.

Waterproof – IP 67
The Campagnolo EPS electronic drivetrain complies with IP67 international standards. The Campagnolo EPS electronic drivetrain complies with IP67 international standards. This means that the system is able to protect its electronic components from dust and liquid infiltration. 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.

Ultra-Shift™ System
Quickly take the lead and leave your rivals motionless. QUICKLY TAKE THE LEAD AND LEAVE YOUR RIVALS MOTIONLESS. The Ultra-Shift™ control by Campagnolo® is regarded by everyone as the fastest and most precise. Thanks to the Ultra-Shift™ patented system; you can move the chain simultaneously up 3 sprockets and then 5 down. Furthermore, the lever design allows for an ever lighter shifting, whilst maintaining the “click” sound featured on all Campagnolo® controls.

Ergopower™ Controls
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.
