Does anyone know if a Record 13-29 cassette is compatible with an otherwise all Chorus setup? Thanks.

P.S. Apologies for the misspelling of Chorus :rolleyes:

If you're talking about similar setups (both recent 10 speeds using "utra-drive" cassettes with long-cage derailleurs), then yes. I think the various grades of Campy cassettes differ only in their weight (the Record has some titanium cogs which make them lighter but also more expensive than the steel ones used in the other models). Frankly, I wouldn't spend the money on a Record cassette -- the Chorus is expensive enough already (and it works the same)! :)
