Difference between Campy 'Record' 10 speed and 11 speed cranks?
Bill Taylor
Can anyone please tell what the difference is between these two
models of Campagnolo 'Record' cranks?
I just got a new bike, and it's equipped with Campagnolo 'Record' 11
speed, but the cranks that came with it are 10 speed, 'Record'
cranks. At the store, I was told this was necessary, as they
couldn't get 11 speed, 'Record' cranks in a 180 mm length. Despite
this alteration to the parts on this bike, the store assured me that
both 11 and 10 speed cranks are the same, and the only difference is
cosmetic - meaning that my cranks don't have the '11 speed' decal on
them.
Yet despite the claim of the store, the front shifting on this bike
is terrible. It consistently rubs on the front derailleur when in
either the lowest, first gear, or the top gear.
My guess, is that this is caused by some sore of alignment
difference, between the 10 speed and 11 speed cranks. Can anyone
please confirm this, one way or another - that the 10 and 11 speed
cranks are either dimensionally the same, or are in fact, different?
Many thanks,
Bill
