2024 CAMPAGNOLO CHORUS 12S DISC BRAKE CONTROLS

The fantastic ergonomics that over the years have become a sort of calling card for Campagnolo have been even further improved with the latest introduction of the 12-speed groupsets. Now, Campagnolo proudly introduces the Chorus Ergopower levers. Nearly identical in functionality, the only key difference being the brake lever that's made from aluminum, but with a coating that enhances its finish and its feel.

 

Ergonomic characteristics, such as the new design of the brake lever hoods, the design of the brake lever and bigger gear levers, team with characteristics that make the shape of Ergopower controls unique for cyclists needs. The various positions possible for Ergopower controls mean they adapt better to different hand sizes.

 

Campagnolo s tried and tested one-lever-one-action philosophy ensures no-confusion control, regardless of the cycling conditions or the cyclist s position. The internal Ultra-Shift mechanism controls the 12-speed rear derailleur, letting the rider shift up by up to 3 sprockets and down by up to 5 sprockets in a single movement. Chorus controls deliver the same extremely durable, soft shifting performance of the other 12-speed groupsets thanks to the same new cables and their housings.

 

The flat-mount Campagnolo disc brake calipers ensure powerful, modular braking in any situation owing to pistons measuring 22 millimetres in diameter. Brake pad return guaranteed by the magnetic system ensures that there is no friction at the time of brake lever release. 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.
