CdA was a group although it shared a few bits with Record and Chorus and Athena. the cranks were different from the original Chours but very much like this one. the Delta style brakes were different from the Record. while the hubs at frist glance appeared similar they were not countersunk (IIRC) and certainly did not have the fancy dust caps. the RD was very unique as it had that weird shaft on it.

I believe ecord and CdA shared brake levers and most all the groups shared the same shifters
