Chain, bottom bracket, crankset, cassette and hoods: the groupset is completed with essential accessories, components whose construction quality makes them virtually everlasting.

Wheels

Although the drivetrain is the reference category, much of the brand’s success is tied to road bike wheels. Not by chance, it was Campagnolo that launched the first racing quick release in the early Years ’30s. The wheel range is organized into four lines, dedicated respectively to asphalt, track, adventure routes and triathlon. There is also a distinction between aluminum and carbon wheels, as well as between high-profile, mid-profile and low-profile models. Wheels for disc brakes or V-brakes: this is another branch of the vast catalog. Last but not least, Campagnolo wheels are divided into progressively higher-end lines . At the top of the evolution range, the WTO 45 DB 2wf from the Bora family and the Carbon Disc from the Shamal family make their debut.
