Campagnolo launches ULTRA: Super Record 13 pushed to its pinnacle

Campagnolo unveils ULTRA, the most advanced version of its iconic Super Record 13 groupset, designed for the most demanding cyclists. This high-end component package combines performance, lightness, and refined aesthetics. From the carbon chainring to the titanium cassette, including the ceramic bottom bracket bearings, every element of the ULTRA kit embodies technical excellence and Italian craftsmanship.

Carbon Chainring: Stiffness and Style

The ULTRA chainring, manufactured in Vicenza, combines a carbon fiber structure with heat-treated 7075 aluminum teeth. This combination offers exceptional stiffness for optimal power transfer, even in critical moments, while significantly reducing weight. Result:

50 teeth: 78 g (34 g lighter than the standard Super Record).
52 teeth: 102 g (28 g lighter).

The carbon fiber, stabilized at 130 °C under controlled pressures, ensures perfect fiber orientation for increased durability. The 7075 aluminum teeth, derived from aeronautics, guarantee remarkable longevity and optimal chain compatibility. Aesthetically, the ULTRA logo and the tooth details, directly integrated into the mold, give it a distinctive racing look.

Titanium Cassette: Lightness and Elegance

The ULTRA 13 cassette redefines performance with its aerospace-grade titanium cogs, machined from a single block for impressive lightness:

10-33 teeth (4 titanium cogs): 215 g (30 g lighter than the standard Super Record).
11-36 teeth (5 titanium cogs): 238 g (44 g lighter).

Beyond weight reduction, this cassette stands out with its meticulous design. Laser-engraved graphics and a black chrome/natural titanium finish make it a striking visual element, signed Campagnolo. Every detail reflects the alliance of technical functionality and sophisticated aesthetics.

ULTRA Ceramic Bearings: Unrivaled Smoothness

The bottom bracket shell, the invisible heart of the bike, benefits from a major upgrade with ULTRA Ceramic bearings. Equipped with silicon nitride balls (aerospace standards), these bearings guarantee minimal friction, perfect circularity, and exceptional longevity. The high-performance resin inner cage reduces noise and friction, while a double sealing system protects against dust and wear. Weight is also optimized: only 49 g for the BSA version, which is 3 g lighter than the standard version. This evolution of Campagnolo’s integrated bearings ensures lasting smoothness, even in the most demanding conditions.

An Exclusive Kit for Ultimate Performance

The ULTRA pack doesn’t just improve performance: it redefines the aesthetics of the Super Record 13. With weight savings of up to 81 g, this groupset becomes the lightest on the market. Available individually or as a complete kit, ULTRA components are delivered in elegant packaging with a chrome finish and the ULTRA logo in black contrast, highlighting their exclusivity.
