Super Record 13 – In Every Shift. We Do One More.
Since its introduction in 1973, the legendary Super Record series has repeatedly redefined the limits of performance in cycling sports. Developed in collaboration with professional athletes, the current iteration is now set to take on a leading role in terms of shifting speed, ergonomics and handling.
The New Standard in Performance. While gear changes are even faster than with the previous 12-speed components, a wide range of gear ratio options ensures that every rider finds the optimum cadence. However, the Super Record 13 groupset embodies more than just an additional sprocket. It represents a completely new performance concept that forms the platform for Campagnolo's future developments.
More Choice. More Control. Following the launch of the classic 2-speed drivetrain system for road bikes, Campagnolo is expanding the Super Record 13 portfolio to include other areas of application. The introduction of specialized rear derailleur options not only forms the basis for a dedicated 1x13-speed road bike drivetrain, but also for a 2x13-speed Allroad version and the Super Record X model series, which also relies on a 1-speed drivetrain system and clearly focuses on Gravel use. A TT version for time trials and triathlons is also already in the starting blocks.
Campagnolo Super Record 13 rear derailleur
The heart of the rear derailleur, which is based on the previous Super Record 13 model, is the NANO Clutch technology. This micro-clutch retains the cage for cassettes with up to 36 teeth, but noticeably increases the chain tension. A detail that ensures better stability and perfect functionality even under particularly challenging conditions – in Gravel use or on routes with different surfaces. The characteristics and quality features that already made the traditional model unique are, of course, also evident in this 13-speed rear derailleur. The result is an incomparably fast, precise and quiet shifting performance, which also meets the requirements of demanding cyclists who do not want to make any compromises, whether on the road or off-road.
The new derailleur architecture with a positioning under the cassette not only enables an aesthetic focused on the essentials, but also improves aerodynamics and ensures perfect alignment between derailleur pulleys and sprockets. The two derailleur pulleys themselves each have 14 teeth, but feature a different profile to ensure optimum chain guidance across the entire gear range. While the upper pulley is fitted with ceramic bearings to optimize gliding and avoid friction, the lower pulley uses traditional bearings to increase durability and longevity. The prerequisite for reliable shifting operations, even under load.
The construction of the Super Record 13 rear derailleur also reflects Campagnolo's commitment to excellence. Accordingly, the inner cage and the front are made of carbon with a direct mold finish, while the components made of anodized aluminum impress with their laser engraving. Meanwhile, the clutch body is made of carbon fiber-reinforced technopolymer to ensure resistance and stability even on particularly uneven terrain. Even the brand logo is an unmistakable design element, symbolizing the comprehensive know-how in terms of material processing, minimalist aesthetics and iconic elegance.

NANO Clutch | Campagnolo has developed this micro clutch based on experience with the Ekar series. The system secures the chain in all conditions and ensures perfect tension at all times. No chain drops, no compromises. Just smooth and precise shifting, even when you're pushing your limits.
Unlock System | This function allows the rear derailleur to be manually unlocked and moved to the preferred position in the event of a system malfunction. Re-engagement is also possible while using the lever to shift up.
Scope of supply:
1 rear derailleur (without battery)
