Campagnolo Super Record Wireless Reshifts Compact Racing Gears in Carbon 2×12 Gruppo
Yes, Campy’s new ultra-premium Super Record electronic groupset is new totally wireless – Campagnolo Super Record Wireless. And those thumb shift levers are gone. But equally big news may be the fact that Campy has gone the sub-compact route of SRAM and paired smaller chainrings to a smaller 10T cog out back, for what claims to be improved gear ratio steps with bigger range.
