  • Hi, can someone tell me what tools I will need to install the above groupset, I have no experience with geared bikes and have never owned any Campag before.

    Their tools confuse the hell outta me...

    Ta

  • wich party you have to fit exatly???

  • What age is it? Which BB type, etc?

  • Hi, it's this one but in silver:

    Parts that confuse me are the BB, cranks, and cassette rear hub area. Haven't bought it just yet, but wanna get tooled up so I can fit it when I get it. Dunno if I need any other specific tools or not :/

    All the tools I have are for Shimano fixed gear bike if that helps...

  • You'll need a tool for the cassette installation - just do a google search for Campagnolo Cassette tool, there's a bunch on the market for less than a fiver. They look like this kind of thing:-

    You'll need a 14mm hex to install the Power Torque cranks, and if you ever want to remove them you'll need a special puller, but I dunno what it looks like.

  • Thanks, that's a good start!

  • (Didn't read properly)

    If the new Veloce BB looks the same like the previous ones, you will need this:

  • OK, have just noticed you are about to buy 2011 cranks...

  • You may also want to consider one of these instead of forking out for an 11sp Campag chain tool...

  • Have you got all the cables? Buy the original Campagnolo ergo dedicated set - you don't need to cut much.

    Invest in a pair of good cable cutters.

  • Hi, I have good cable cutters, I thought the cables came with it?

    I'll have a look into that.

    A cassette/BB tool that I could connect to my 18" socket bar would be sweet, though haven't seen any...

    A socket (can't remember which size) will fit the tool

  • Just watched this:

    Er, that BB isn't the same as the above one is it? I'm totally gonna need to use my breaker bar to get it tight enough.

  • Campag installation instructions suggest 35 Nm.

    They used to say install them hand tight with loctite 222....

  • @op - if you need to borrow any of the tools then I've probably got everything you need. (I'm not far from you either, I live in Beckenham).

  • Bloody hell, power-torque disassembly looks like such a fecking faff. Ultra-torque FTW.

  • Through my (fucking headache) research, I will need the following to do the job:

    Campag tools:

    UT-BB110
    UT-BB130
    UT-FC090
    UT-BB080

    Possibly:
    UT-VS030
    UT-CN200

    Some spanners, hex bits, torx bits and a wrench. And a screwdriver.

    What a fucking joke! That's a fuck load of money on tools. May have to reconsider Shimano, gonna keep researching.

  • Like I said up there ^, I've got most of those (mainly the Park Tool versions) and you're welcome to borrow them.

    One of the reasons I stick with Campagnolo is because, over the 20 years or so of running it, you build up a collection of the tools required to work on it.

  • Don't bother with the chain tool. From my experience of Campagnolo assembly, the only tools you really need other than what's in a standard bike tool kit is the BB cup wrench and the Campag splined cassette tool.

  • All outboard bearing cups, regardless of manufacturer, have the same design so one tool fits all.

  • Thanks guys,

    And thanks andyp, I'll keep that in mind. I won't have everything i need to put it all together for a few weeks.

  • Okay so I have ordered these:

    UT-BB130 - BB cups tool
    UT-BB110 - long hex bit
    UT-BB080 - cassette bit

    And through reading about the stupid fucking chain, just about to order this:
    http://www.ukbikestore.co.uk/product/18/kmc_kl10a/kmc-10-speed-campagnolo-chain-link.html

    £8.49!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Christ.

    Think that should be all I need with what I have. I know it'll be a headache doing it all myself.

    Can anyone shed any light on what the hell this is and how it actually works? And will I need it?

    That's for getting a rear gear aligned. Unless your frame is bent, you won't need it.
