Branford Bike: Campagnolo 9 Speed Loose Cog Veloce Cassettes

Campagnolo Loose Cog 9 Speed Veloce Cassettes:

Our most popular cassette for 9 speed systems.
For the year 2000 this loose cog cassette was called EDC which stood for EXA Drive Chromed. In 2001 the name was changed to Veloce. For clarity, we simply call it a "loose cog" cassette.
Each cog is separated by a resin spacer. Alloy carriers are not used on this cassette. The cogs may be individually replaced. Custom combinations are possible although shifting may be degraded slightly if the cogs do not line up properly.
Heat treated steel cogs are precisely machined and chrome plated for smooth shifting and excellent wear.
Each cog has an indented ramp, called Ultra Drive, to assist in up shifting. Tooth profiles are also custom configured to help with down shifting.
2001 to current models use Ultra Drive cogs; 2000 models use EXA drive. The spacing is identical and both will shift flawlessly with current or older Campagnolo 9 speed rear derailleurs and Ergo 9 speed levers.
Campagnolo loose cog 9 speed cassettes can last up to 8,000 miles if you keep them clean, well lubricated and use a Campagnolo chain.
For longest life and smoothest shifting we recommend using Le Tour Chain Lube on these premium cassettes.
Campagnolo 9 speed cassette cogs technical information:
Each cog is 1.75 mm thick. Campy uses 2.8 mm amber resin spacers and spaces their cogs 4.55 mm on center. That is to say that the distance from the center of one cog to the center of the adjoining cog, measured from the center of the first cog to the center of the second cog, is 4.55 mm. The inside diameter of each amber spacer is 35.4 mm.
Individual cogs are available below.
Each cassette comes with 9 cogs and 7 amber resin spacers. Although shown in the above photo, a 27.0 mm, outside diameter steel lockring, is NOT included with any Campagnolo loose cog 9 speed cassette.
These cassettes will fit all Campy 9 and 9/10 speed hubs from 1997 to the present. They will shift flawlessly with all models of Campagnolo 9 speed Ergo shifters and rear derailleurs.
The weight of a 13-26 loose cog 9 speed cassette with out a lockring is just 245 grams.

EXA Drive and Ultra Drive - How they differ...

EXA Drive and Ultra Drive

The above photo shows an EXA Drive cog on the left and a new 10 speed, Ultra Drive cog on the right. Note how the two step, machined indentation slightly varies between both cogs. The "O" stamping plays no mechanical role; it is there only as a visual indicator for proper cog stacking.
This machined indentation is responsible for helping to pick up your chain when you up shift, and move it on to the next cog. EXA Drive indentations were originally designed for Campy 8 speed chains and cassettes back in the mid 1990's. It is designed to engage the chain rivet head first and then the outside chain plate. EXA Drive works very well with both 8 and 9 speed systems.
Campagnolo 10 speed chains do not have protruding rivet heads and pose a problem for EXA Drive. Thus the invention of Ultra Drive. The Ultra Drive indentation is designed to catch the chain's outer plate and assist the chain up to the next cog.
In early spring 2000, Campagnolo quietly started to introduce Ultra Drive cogs on all of their 10 speed cassettes. In late 2000 they made it official and raised the price to cover the new design and machining costs.
Ultra Drive is essential for smooth shifting on 10 speed sytems. It is also designed to work with all Campy 9 speed systems and chains. We noticed a large improvement in shifting with 10 speeds but only a slight difference with 9 speed systems. Both EXA Drive and Ultra Drive cassettes work perfectly with all past and current Campagnolo 9 speed systems. You can even mix Ultra Drive and Exa Drive cogs on a cassette.
