Discover the best components from today’s leading cycling brands at Escapa. The 2018 Campagnolo Chorus Short 11-speed Rear Derailleur features a new upper body made of ultra-light technopolymer and reinforced with carbon fiber. The new shape of the external components allows the rear derailleur to move at a different angle, and the new internal design keeps the chain closer to the cassette to ensure better power transfer, greater and more reliable traction, a better chain/sprocket interface, and increased durability of components subject to wear.
EMBRACE TECHNOLOGY:
The special chainring located inside the derailleur body acts on a rectangular-section spring that allows the component to move along a path that perfectly follows the curve of the sprockets, both on the 11-23 cassette and the new 11-29 cassette.
ALUMINUM REAR DERAILLEUR MOUNTING SCREWS:
The two-piece system, while maintaining strength and stiffness, reduces weight by 53% compared to steel and by 22% compared to titanium, and extends the component’s service life.
CARBON FIBER FRONT PLATE:
Extreme stiffness and reduced weight. It increases the precision of the rear derailleur.
EXCLUSIVE ULTRA-SHIFT PARALLELOGRAM GEOMETRY:
Maximum shifting rigidity, fast response, precision, and reduced friction.
UPPER AND LOWER HOUSINGS IN MONOLITHIC TECHNOPOLYMER WITH CARBON POWDER:
Maximum lightness yet resistant to impacts and weather conditions
CARBON FIBER CAGE PLATE:
Shifter positioning is extremely precise and extremely lightweight.
