CyclistNew Campagnolo Super Record S Wireless groupset lowers price but adds new gearingCampagnolo has released a more affordable version of its Super Record Wireless groupset, priced to compete with Shimano Dura-Ace and with a matt black finish in place of the originals gloss coating. The brand says that changes in materials used in the Super Record S groupset add around 150g to its weight over the premium version, which will still be available.Campagnolo has also added three new chainsets, with standard gearing of 52/36t, 53/39t and 54/39t and an 11-32t cassette, adding to the lower tooth-count chainsets and cassettes that were available with Super Record Wireless at launch.The new Super Record S Wireless groupset is priced at 3,525.90 / $4,299 / 3,990.Theres also a new black-on-black edition of the Bora Ultra WTO and Boro WTO wheelsets, priced at 3,300 / $4,149 / 3,800 and 2,400 / $2,949 / 2,700 respectively, and a matching matt black HPPM power meter, although the price for this isnt yet available.Lower priced optionThe Super Record S groupsets pricing is significantly lower than the flagship Super Record Wireless: 973 / $1,100 / 1,210, to be precise. That puts it in line with the list price of Shimano Dura-Ace and undercuts SRAM Red AXS, making it potentially a more attractive option for buyers.The new groupset retains the originals all-wireless design, its two shift levers positioned one above the other behind the brake lever and its two non-matching batteries for the front and rear derailleurs.Super Record Wireless had a weight claimed at launch to be 2,520g, so the new Super Record S is likely to weigh around 2,700g, based on Campagnolos numbers. The premium version was already the heaviest of Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolos top spec groupsets, with Shimano claiming 2,439g for Dura-Ace and SRAM 2,496g for the updated Red AXS (although these numbers will vary dependent on gearing and SRAM says that Red is lighter than Dura-Ace).The three new chainset configurations bring the total available to six:45/29t, 48/32t, 50/34t, 52/36t, 53/39t and 54/39t, offering a wide range of choices to fine-tune your gearing to your riding style, with sub-1:1 as well as pro-level options.Campagnolo will continue to offer the original Super Record Wireless 10-27t and 10-29t cassettes, but is adding a new 11-32t option. As with SRAM Red, the more compact cassettes offer similar gear ratios to a standard cassette with an 11-tooth smallest sprocket.

Again, this is likely to show a price reduction from the $2,449 / 2,240 list price of the original, although Campagnolo hasnt provided prices.For a full matching Campagnolo look, you can pair your groupset with a newly released version of the Bora WTO and premium Bora Ultra WTO wheelsets with black graphics on matt finish rims.The Bora wheels had a refresh at the start of 2024, with a wider 23mm internal width and wheelset depths of 35mm, 45mm and 60mm on offer. Claimed weights start at 1,285g.While the groupset represents a price reduction from the original, the price for the wheelsets represents a slight uplift at 3,300 / $4,149 / 3,800 for the Bora Ultra WTO wheels and 2,400 / $2,949 / 2,700 for Bora WTO.Why not Record?Campagnolo calls the new groupset a special edition of its Super Record. The branding is slightly surprising, as it has in the past always labelled its next-down groupset as Record.Its not clear why Campagnolo has abandoned its usual nomenclature for Super Record S, although its possible that it has decided to reserve the Super Record name for its electronic shifting, with Record and below remaining mechanical only.Again, this is a departure from Campagnolos previous practice. At one point, Super Record, Record and Chorus groupsets were all offered in both electronic and mechanical configurations.Its also different to the naming its adopted for its Ekar gravel groupset, where the original Ekar was joined in 2024 by the lower priced Ekar GT, which also introduced new gearing options.
