COMPONENTS > CAMPAGNOLO: Campagnolo Chorus D-Skeleton Brakes

The differentiated brakes of the Skeleton™ type which equip the Chorus™ groupset in the 2007 range are the most advanced expression of design in the service of performance.
The starting point was the previous brakes, which thanks to the differentiation between front and rear, offered the maximum braking power along with the minimum risk of locking the rear wheel, to guarantee the shortest braking distances.
To further improve performance, it was decided to study different forms for the forged arms to permit lightening of the structure without sacrificing rigidity and, indeed, enhancing it.
This gave rise to arms in which the resistant sections were modified in such a way as to create an oversize effect, by moving them towards the outside of the structure and eliminating the superfluous material.
As a result, the new differentiated Skeleton™ brakes provide performance that is possibly even better with the reduced weight, but thanks to the fact that the arms are forged, and not CNC-machined, their life and safety are guaranteed.
