10sp daytona/centaur ultra shifters .
What´s the difference on the shifting parts from chorus/record? I have a pair here... it does not feel as quick shifting as my other powershift centaur. I wonder why...

Both Powershift and Ultrashift move the rear der with shift lever movement..except for upshift(to higher gear, smaller cog)..UltraSshift thumb button moves the der, Powershift thumb button 'releases' the rear der and the der spring moves it to a higher gear. Different guts completely, Ultrashift to Powershift..

But what you're probably feeling is that in Chorus/Record shifters the main shaft rotated on a ball bearing, whereas Daytona/Centaur used a bushing for the main shaft movement. The bushing is draggier than the ball bearing. |

The Record models were identical to the carbon Chorus ones (there was an earlier 10-speed alloy Chorus shifter set which also had the main shaft on ball-bearings), except for the group name branding and the former had a carbon-effect sticker on the shifter paddles. The later "Ultra" shifters have a lighter shifting feel to the older "BB System" labelled ones, though some (me included) prefer the latter.

Of all the Campagnolo brifters (8, 9, 10 and 11spd), my favorites are still the Chorus alloy 10spd shifters. They have the smoothness of the ball bearings, and the positive feel of the metal carrier. Plus they had a bigger recess for the brake cable end, so that just about any brand of brake cables can be used (carbon lever brakes have a smaller recess, and only Campy specific cables can be used). This allows me to use Gore's fully sealed brake cable systems. |

As per the carbon/resin spring carrier(Record 'Ultra', along with a coated and drilled shift disc)..it's interesting whenCampag made those 'red' shifters..stiffer springs, they went back to the metal spring carrier. The carbon/resin one, altho didn't break or split as much, was a bit 'springy-er.
