CAMPAGNOLO 2012 TEMPOSÕIDU KOMPONENDID

JOOKSUD

In 2012 Campagnolo is even more focused on aerodynamics and time trial races. After the preview of the Time Trial/Triathlon components, Campagnolo reveals the new Bora Ultra 80, which enriches and completes the product dedicated to speed enthusiasts.
The new Bora Ultras with an 80mm rim for tubular tires have been designed and tested in our wind tunnel with the aim of making them as aerodynamic and steady as possible, so that they would be responsive during sudden pace changes and balanced at quicker paces.

The new Bora Ultra 80 wheels have a carbon hub and an oversize aluminium flange. Like their 50mm equivalents, they are fitted with the special ball/bearings system with CULT technology, the combination of the best ceramic balls and the special Cronitect™ steel cup/cone. The CULT allows the wheel to be 9 times smoother compared to the traditional steel ball/bearings system. The balls and bearings are only lubricated with oil instead of grease. The treatment used for the bearings prevents oxidation and maintains performance over time.

The new Bora Ultra 80 are also fitted with a dynamic balancing system in the rim: thanks to a special solution applied at the time of manufacturing, the surface of the carbon fibre is positioned in order to achieve a perfect balancing of the rim even at high speed
The design of the spokes has been created with great care to the smallest detail to make the wheel responsive and steady: the front wheel has 16 stainless steel aero-radial spokes with a variable section and the rear wheel is fitted with 18 stainless steel aero-radial spokes with a variable section and doubled on the cassette side. They are both fitted with an antirotation system for the spokes that always keeps them in an optimal position.

At just 1540 gr. (715 + 825) the overall weight of the two wheels is a record.
The new Bora Ultra 80 have been designed, both from a technical and graphical point of view, to be integrated with the other 50mm wheels of the Bora range. By combining the 50mm wheel for the front and the 80mm wheel for the rear, produces an amazing weight of
just 1390 gr.

The 2012 range also brings some new solutions in terms of design and graphics. For those who like "tone on tone" combinations, Campagnolo has decided to introduce a new colour called Dark Label, which will be available for Bora Ultra 80, Bora Ultra Two 50 and Bora One.

"U BRAKES"

To complete the range of components for time trial disciplines, Campagnolo offers "U Brakes" in a forged aluminium, black anodized version.

The brake-pad holders can be adjusted to achieve optimal alignment with the braking track ensuring consistently safe and confident braking. The pad compound has been created by Campagnolo in order to obtain top performance in braking. The brakes are available in a lateral pull version for the front and central or lateral pull for the rear.

TT/TRI BRAKE LEVERS

The new TT/Tri brake levers have been designed at Campy Tech Lab and tested in the wind tunnel ensuring the creation of an innovative, ergonomic, light and high performance product. The levers have an ergonomic design, especially created to follow hand movements and maintain an aerodynamic position even during braking.

Strength required to activate the levers is reduced to a minimum thanks to their special curvature. The levers are fitted with a special quick-release system that allows for easy removal of the wheels.

The weight is minimal, both in the carbon version (85 g) and in the aluminium version (106 g).

VÄNDAD

Lab research has shown that, although the diameter of the TT chainrings is larger, the crankset is as rigid as the crankset with standard chainrings (53/39).
This maintains optimal transfer of power from the pedals to the wheel via the chainring and the chain. The X.P.S.S. technology (Extreme Performance Shifting System) allows for consistently accurate and fast shifting, even under load. This is enhanced by the 8 upshifting and 2 downshifting zones of the chainring and the special design of the teeth.

The F.E.M. analysis we made compare the rigidity of the 39/53 and 42/55 chainrings. The tests prove that the chainrings have the same rigidity values despite the larger diameter.

The TT crankset will be available for Super Record (also titanium spindle version), Record and Chorus in the 42/54 and 42/55 combinations.
