If you're looking to extract every last bit of performance from your Campagnolo Record-equipped bike, you've gotta become a stickler for details. Most folks riding Record have already given extensive thought to bike fit, to aerodynamics, and to bike weight. By tending to those details you leave... read more

The Record Ultra Torque crankset/bottom bracket system is unique in one important respect: Unlike Shimano or FSA, the Record Ultra Torque BB bearings aren't housed in the BB cups themselves.

It's only been in the last year or two that powermeter technology has gotten to the point where racing with one makes sense. It's not that power data isn't valuable ALL the time -- of course, it is.
