Is this actually Chorus
I was in search again of my monoplaner brakes (stay away ebay cause it just makes you want to spend money lol) and i came across this:
https://cgi.ebay.com/Campagnolo-choru...#ht_500wt_1413
It claims to be Chorus, i went on velospace and could not find any chorus's in graphite finish, only Athena.
he also has:
https://cgi.ebay.com/Campagnolo-Choru...#ht_500wt_1413
and this:
https://cgi.ebay.com/Campagnolo-Choru...#ht_500wt_1413
for sale, can anyone actually confirm if it's actually really chorus, cause i may be interested. it's puuurrdy, i kinda want it, but not sure if i have anything it will go on, and plus no chorus rear derailleur
also on velobase i found this:
https://velobase.com/ViewComponent.as...=118&AbsPos=11
but no brake calipers.

I thought I remembered seeing that they did Chorus in a Century Grey finish. Some references in this search, and I know I saw another somewhere earlier today. Velobase Chorus
If I find that reference, which talked about the rarity of the group, I'll edit this.
Not what I was thinking of, but found this:
Campy Grey

Unique Vintage Steel
Difficult to tell from the photos, but that color does appear to be a shade or two lighter than the 'graphite' finish Chorus that is listed on VeloBase, then again, so is the Athena that I have on there. It looks more in line with the 'Century Gray' colored C-Record crank, but that is obviously no C-Record part. Athena or Chorus, it's nice stuff, but finding a matching RD will probably take some time as I don't see much in the graphite or century gray come up on eBay very often.
