Campagnolo Centaur Brake Calipers:

Campagnolo Centaur brakes are precisely machined and beautifully finished.
Heat treated steel springs and hardware are carefully machined and then nickel chrome plated for greater durability.
Brass bushings at each pivot point provide smooth braking and keep the costs down.
Just like Campagnolo crank arms, both aluminum alloy brake arms are cold forged for maximum stiffness and strength.
Campagnolo Centaur brake pads are the same as used for the year 2001 to current, Record brakes. They are slightly longer than 2000 Daytona pads and curved to fit your rims. An orbital washer/bolt assembly allows for simple brake pad toe in adjustments.
Campagnolo brake pads will last up to 5,000 miles if you keep them clean and properly adjusted. The rubber brake pad and alloy holder are separate units. Pad replacement is quick and simple.
The weight of a Centaur caliper is just 376 grams.
These brake calipers will fit all frames and forks designed for use with a recessed allen head, brake center bolt assembly. The reach on these brakes is adjustable from 39 to 50 mm.
Genuine Campagnolo replacement parts, cables and brake pads are available below.
Only available as a set of two Dual Pivot brake calipers. Cables are NOT included.
We suggest using a Park Torque Wrench, for the most accurate installation. Campagnolo recommends the following torque specifications:
Brake Caliper Fixing Bolt (holds the caliper on your fork or rear bridge) - tighten to 10.0 Newton Meters (N.m) or 7.38 foot pounds.
Brake Pad Fixing Bolt - tighten to 8.0 Newton Meters (N.m) or 5.9 foot pounds.
Cable Clamp Bolt - tighten to 5.0 Newton Meters (N.m) or 3.69 foot pounds.
Made in Italy by Campagnolo and backed with a three year warranty.

Campagnolo Veloce Brake Calipers:

Campagnolo Veloce brakes are precisely machined and nicely finished.

Just like Campagnolo crank arms, both aluminum alloy brake arms are cold forged for maximum stiffness and strength.

Campagnolo 2001 to current, Veloce brake pads, pictured above, are the same as used for the 1999 Record and 2000 Daytona brakes.
