We know you're thinking it -- the Campagnolo Chorus 11 Speed EPS Compatible Crankset looks an awful lot like its Record sibling. After all, it utilizes the same Ultra-Torque spindle assembly for an astoundingly stiff interface, the chainrings are nearly identical, and the unidirectional carbon fiber crank arms share the same graceful shape. The difference is in the details, however, and the Chorus forgoes the Record's hollow crank arms in favor of solid arms. The result is that they're about 90 grams heavier than the Record crankset, but are no less drool-worthy.

The Campagnolo Chorus 11 Ultra-Torque EPS Compatible Carbon Crankset is available in one color. The crank arms come in either a...
