Accurate shifting and should prove to be long lasting

The Chorus cassette has exactly the same teeth proﬁles and spacing found in Campag's higher-end Record and Super Record groupsets.

All of the sprockets are coated steel (nickel-chrome), and they should prove to be extremely durable, so unless an all-out low weight is crucial, this is a very sensible option.

Shifting is as conﬁdence-inspiring as you’d expect from Campag, and with deeper teeth than Shimano, it’s reassuringly solid – though not as silky smooth as Ultegra.

Product "35403" does not exist or you do not have permission to access it.
