FIRST LOOK: Campagnolo '07

Record
Campagnolo Ultra Torque - Record

We've managed to get these pictures from Gerard Brown of some Cinelli and Time bikes launched by Chicken and Sons Cycles last week. Full details of the bikes to follow very soon. However in the mean time here's some pictures of the details which feature the latest Veloce and Record groups from Italian makers Campagnolo.

The main feature of the 2007 groups is the Ultra-Torque BB and cranks accross the range from Veloce to Record. There is also a lighter action to the Ergo shifters and a new front derailleur called the QS, which presumably means Quick Shift as they have improved the shifter and mechanism to work faster and easier.

We've had a good play with the new Record stuff and the Ulra Torque BB and crank assembly is excellent - really simple and clean looking. The whole Record group is lighter and certainly a head turner - no chance to ride it yet but a full test just as soon as we can...

Hopefully, we will have a few more spy pics of the latest Campagnolo groups later this week.

Picked up a package from the receptionist at work today...

My Campagnolo Ultra Torque crankset has arrived.

They look fantastic! Similar style to the old Record ones (4 arm spider and the fifth incorporated into the crank arm).

Just waiting for the rest of the groupset to show up and then I will have a fun weekend of "out with the old and in with the new".
