help identify Campy lever
I've been trying to figure out if these levers of mine are Record or Chorus or something else. I've looked online and really can't tell (a) if there was a real difference when they were sold (other than, for instance, hood color) and (b) what these are.
Mostly just a matter of curiosity

I would need to see a more angle picture. Looks like a Chorus to me.

They look like 4th generation (92-93) Chorus or Athena (Athena has a plastic body).
I had the Chorus version of these and can confirm they were made for aero routing only, even though they used the previous generation non aero bodies and hoods with plug.
