Campy model year question

[cyan]

It seems there is a compatibility divide between pre-2015 and post-2015 Campy groupsets for Chorus, Record, and Super Record, but what about the differences (if any) among post-2015 models for these respective groupsets? For example, is it exactly the same groupset from 2015 till now for Chrous?

I have no specific idea, but I think the 2015+ has some fancy ram/pin doohickey design that aids FD shifting smoothness or something like that.

Yes..If you look at the spare parts diagram for 2015 and 2018..identical(some small differences but nothing huge, like a bushing)...But unchanged from 2015 thru 2018..gonna be some changes for 2019(some now), like 12s..we'll see if Chorus becomes 12s..I think the 'next' thing you will see is wireless 12s..A little bird told me..:)

BUT I think SR/Record will be 12s, mech and wireless, rim and disc.
Chorus/Potenza/Centaur 11s, mechanical, rim and disc...I think Chorus EPS will go away.

For right above..2015 LH lever has a pin to prevent shoving the front der all the way in to prevent shucking chain off the small ring because the long arm front der moves more per 'click'..BUT same 3 clicks to big ring, thumb push to stop..small ring but an additional movement inward for 'trim' in bigger(lower gear) cogs.

Got it, so the "2018 11S Chrous/Record/SR groupset' advertised by some retailers are just marketing gimmicks then, probably just selling post-2015 stock

Don't tease me!

MSRP will be roughly the GDP of several small countries.

GDP of Burkina Faso: OK
Luxembourg: that’s a problem
