no more red accents on SR? Kinda love the red.

I expected a high cost but it’s even greater than I thought it’d be at 2450! $6900 for the group
Looks like some quality tech for those that want not. |

in 2024 you can spend $2500 on a new super record power meter crankset. or $2500 on a used hand-made steel frame rim-brake road bike built up with 11spd Super Record.

The exact same thought went through my head as I’m trying to find a new all road frame set. Most of them are around that retail!

Campy is definitely leaning into the "luxury" market. looks great though

'Leaning'?? Been that way for a while, like maybe, I dunno, decades? Not Shimano, not sram, just like Seiko makes a high end watch, and Toyota makes a high end car...They aren't Rolex or Audi or.....putnameofpremiumbrandthing here.

I get the point, but Campy SRMs when released have been wildly expensive going back to the 11-spd era.

I think this one was a re-spray, but the serotta orange pink fade is def one of my favorite paint jobs I've seen out there.

Sadly that is the fate of any of them since they tend to fade out if you actually ride them. Also the paint is notoriously fragile :/

Seems like a nice unit, but Campagnolo seems a bit late to the table with this. I don't mean just late to the table with a power meter crank, but actually late to the table with a Campagnolo OEM power meter crank. SRM and Power2Max have been building power spider based power meter cranks with original OEM Campagnolo arms for years. Campagnolo's SR WRL crank appears to be using the same Campagnolo arms that they've been supplying to SRM and Power2Max. The only thing new here is that this cranks uses the SW WRL sub-compact BCD.
Here's the SRM and Power2Max units (notice the Campagnolo logos on the arms, and Campagnolo serial number sticker on the back of the Power2Max NDS arm): Further reason to think the SR WRL power meter cranks use the same arms as already used by SRM and Power2Max is that the SW WRL cranks have the same limited range of arm lengths as SRM and Power2Max - just 170mm, 172.5mm, and 175mm. This, despite the fact that the non-power meter SW WRL cranks are also available in 165mm. Although I use Campagnolo drivetrains, my preference for 165mm cranks has prevented me from using the SRM or Power2Max Campagnolo cranks, and it looks like I won't be using the SW WRL power meter cranks either. I wonder though, if Campagnolo will stop supplying arms to other power meter makers, now that they have their own (more expensive) power meter cranks. But European trade laws may prevent that. |

As far as more strain gauges? That's not clear either. From the Bike Rumor article: Quote:
