I know, the shame of it. Never before have I owned a bike with Campag.
I’ve bought a v well priced Uncle John from a friend. He built it for commuting and light touring, I’m going to race* CX on it.
It’s all 10sp Campag – Veloce and Centaur. Chainset is a Centaur compact (34/50). I want more suitable gearing – I was thinking of the classic 36/46.
Some googling tells me that Centaur compact won’t take a big ring smaller than 48 due to the one weird 112BCD bolt. And because of this 112BCD thing, I’m limited to Campag compatible chainrings.
The weird world of Campag has now given me the fear – if I buy another (non Campag) chainset will I run into any other compatibility issues?
Help..!
*if you call the sort of poorly co-ordinated wheezing I do “racing”….
