Don't need an upgrade, just NEED black ones!
So, Chorus Skeleton seem the obvious upgrade from my silver Centaurs, but will the work properly with my 2010 Centaur shifters. Campagnolo haven't change pull ratios or anything have they?
Or is there any thing else I should consider for less money?
Tektro, Planet-X??

Planet X Forged or CNC are really lightweight some people love 'em, some hate 'em. Apparently a bit of a pig to set up but they are what I would consider unless you specifically want Campag.0

They are brakes - you pull a the brake lever which pulls the cable which moves the caliper arms closer together. That's it - they aren't shifters. Pull ratio would make no difference unless the whole design of the braking system was radically changed. And yes, the Chorus brakes will, to all intents and purposes, be identical to your Centaur ones aside from colour.
As you don't actually need them in any practical sense, I'd recommend just watching for them on Ebay. I paid £125 a month or two back for a brand new Super Record brakeset. That seems to be the usual cheap price for Chorus.Faster than a tent.......0 -
