The 'Un-Official' Campagnolo Ekar thread

chain- Italy
rear derailleur- Italy
rotors- Romania

I know the crank, bb, levers/calipers and chain are correct. I can see it on the boxes in a pic I have. I can't see the others but I believe that's the breakdown from what I remember.

Thanks. So getting a group is truly a global effort. Interestingly the only parts i'm going to need come from Italy then, haha, perfect.

gotcha. yes, i think you're stuck. it's unlikely a 12s chain will work with the cassette stack. the only reason they would have went with a narrower chain is if the spacing of the cassette required reducing the width of the chain, which is almost certainly the case to squeeze another cog in there.
