Campagnolo Record Ergolevers Vintage
So, I'm thinking about upgrading my current circa '06 carbon Chorus levers to Record but I'm a bit confused as to the years/vintage/versions of the Ergo levers, with labels like 10speed, Ultra, QS, 10 Ultra/Ultra QS, red print, Carbon BB system, etc.
I have some clue as to what QS is (front der quick shift...whatever that means)... Could someone break down the years/labels/functions? Is it worth going "Ultra" or "QS"? What exactly is "Ultra?" etc etc etc Thanks! -Steve |

I think you have no need to "upgrade" from what you have. You will save a few grams in the levers, but doubtful that you would notice any performance difference.
If your 2006 levers are getting a little mushy with their shifts, a rebuild and new hoods will make you as good as new. |

Whether I do upgrade or not...I'd still like to understand what seems to be a mess of names/functions/etc.

Do you like the old shifters that needed to have G springs replaced (as fas as shifting actio/fel)
or do you think the new ones are better, with the new mechanism? |

Piggybacking: is it possible to use the pre-QS shifters with post 2010 front derailleurs? |

All the shifters should work with campagnolo triple (comp) front derailleur just in case you want to try a triple.
I have however just tried the triple it with pre 2006 campagnolo shifters I'm not sure how well the 2012 veloce/centaur will work (good I hope). |
