Until Campagnolo set the world on its ear with its Record sidepull brakes in 1968, high-performance brakes were centerpull. The most notable centerpull was the Mafac Racer, made famous by five-time Tour de France winner Jacques Anquetil.

Since then, Campagnolo brakes have been sought-after works of functional art.

Campagnolo Chorus Differential Caliper Set. New, $200.00/set

Part# 81095

• We have 27 sets in stock
• Produced about 2006
• Made in Italy

The front is a powerful dual pivot caliper while the rear is a single pivot. Since the rider's weight gets thrown to the front during braking, by making the rear caliper slightly less powerful, the rider has a smaller chance of causing the rear wheel to skid.

Nice and new

In the box

From the back. The front caliper on the left is dual-pivot and the rear caliper on the right is single-pivot. This creates a perfectly balanced braking force as the rider's weight is thrown forward during braking.

Chorus Skeleton Differential Silver Brake Calipers. New, $250.00/set

Part# 81098

• Campagnolo part# BR7-CHD
• Campagnolo performed an advanced structural analysis and removed all unnecessary material and added to where it would improve braking power.
• The front is a powerful dual pivot caliper while the rear is a single pivot. Since the rider's weight gets thrown to the front during braking, by making the rear caliper slightly less powerful, the rider has a smaller chance of causing the rear wheel to skid.
• The calipers have ball-bearing pivots for extra-smooth actuation.

These calipers are not only superb stoppers, their design is quite striking.
