| The October issue of Cyclist had a 1-page discussion of the Chorus
Group. (I didn't see the Bicycling piece, so pardon if some of
this is redundant). They said it features a new (for Campy) derailleur
design - slant-parallelogram, with something called "Dual Mode",
making it adjustable to a wider range of gears (from 12-27 teeth
to 12-34 teeth). On the brakes the right arm splits the left (goes
through a slot in the middle of it). There was a picture in Cyclist.
Both derailleurs and brakes use teflon coatings to reduce friction
at key points. They promised a roadtest in the Nov. issue.
