campy hierarchy
I'm trying to learn more about the campagnolo company hierarchy, specifically the Nuevo record, super record, and the C record. Is there a site that will explain more about these?

Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

All three are top of the line, with Chorus long being the B level.
It's a question of generation. Record was first (Chorus didn't exist yet, and Gran Sport was B), was replaced by Nuevo (new) Record, then Super Record. Having no place to go from Super, they went back to Record, designated for a while as Record C or C-Record. Since then it's been plain old Record until now.
BTW- the right place for this question is the C&V forum. Folks who hang around there live and breathe this kind of stuff, and can supply details like the exact year, month, day and hour when each generation was introduced and later replaced.
