USE
The crankset (Fig. 1) is the component
of the bicycle's drivetrain that transfers
the force applied via the pedals to the
chain.
The type of crankset is Ultra-Torque,
with the semiaxles connected via a
Hirth coupling, which is compatible
with the most common bottom bra-
cket shells, for which Campagnolo has
implemented specific bottom bracket
cups.
A - hand crank
B - chainrings
C - bottom bracket
D - hole for the pedal

WARNING!
Do not put washers between the
pedal axle and hand crank as they
would give rise to abnormal tensions
in the interface area. Such tensions
could lead to premature breaks and
be the cause of accidents, physical
injuries or even death.

The part you have is the result of nume-
rous engineering operations carried out
on various parts in order to improve the
overall performance of the drivetrain unit.
The use of parts which do not be-
long to this range may significantly
reduce the overall performance of
the drivetrain, therefore we recom-
mend not mixing parts from the old
ranges with those from the new.
In order to help you and to enhance
performance, Campagnolo has introdu-
ced a distinctive mark (a boxed letter
as illustrated here) on the new Super
Record, Record and Chorus unit parts
in order to point out their compatibility.
Therefore, please ensure that the let-
ter in the parts that operate for shifting
(right-hand ErgoPower or bar end and
rear derailleur) and in the parts that ope-
rate for derailings (left-hand ErgoPower
or bar end and front derailleur, crankset
and bottom bracket cup) correspond.
