Campagnolo Centaur FC8-CE293C 10 Speed Ultra Torque Chainset Carbon 172.5mm 39/53
On 11 November 1927, when Tullio Campagnolo found himself all alone at the foot of the first steep climbs of the Croce d’Aune, he was not afraid and did not give up. Now that today we can count on a whole crowd of friends along our path, keen fans and admirers of Campagnolo products, we will never give up. We have chosen this image from the turn of the century to trace the salient stages of our distant and recent history.Campagnolo is not just a company, a logo or a trademark. Campagnolo today can be described as a brand.
Campagnolo Centaur FC8-CE293C 10 Speed Ultra Torque Chainset Carbon 172.5mm 39/53
For a very limited run Campagnolo manufactured their famous Ultra-Torque interface on the Centaur line up.
With the science backing the Ultra-Torque interface as being superior to the current Power-Torque interface that is currently being produced with the Centaur crankset, this is by far an upgrade over the current line up.
Crank lengh: 172.5mm
Chainrings : 39/53T
Colour: Carbon black
Weight approx : 715g
LIGHTNESS, RIGIDITY, SIMPLIFIED ASSEMBLY AND MAINTENANCE: ULTRA-TORQUE™.
THIS IS CAMPAGNOLO'S ANSWER IN THE INTEGRATED CRANKSET SECTOR.
AFTER MORE THAN 10 YEARS SINCE ITS INTRODUCTION THE ULTRA-TORQUE™ SYSTEM, IT IS STILL CONSIDERED, THE BEST PERFORMING CRANK-SET SPINDLE IN TERMS OF STIFFNESS, LOW WEIGHT AND EFFICIENCY OF POWER TRANSMISSION.
Campagnolo found a way to permanently conjoin the semi-axles of the bottom bracket to the respective crankset arms. This redesign made it possible to considerably reduce the lateral dimensions at the axle level and prevent annoying contact with the ankles when turning the pedals.
Assembly is simplistic: one single oversize bolt is enough to integrate the two semi-axles. With regard to torque transmission efficiency, this system is equally as effective as a single piece axle.
Furthermore, despite the narrow side profile, we have been able to position the bearings outside the bottom bracket shell, resulting in greater axle rigidity from the increased axle diameter. This breakthrough was obtained by using an ingenious mechanical system derived from many years' motoring experience in the rotation axle and engine shaft coupling sector: the Hirth joint.
In short , this is a joint with self-centring and self-aligning frontal teeth located in the middle of the bottom-bracket
axle where the ends of the semi-axles, integrated with the crankset arms, come into contact.
