Campy Record crankset compatibility
I have a 2015 11sp Record group. I would like to change my crankset from 172.5 to 165. I found this crankset and was hoping I could just install it without making any changes to bb or front derailleur. Does anyone know if this crank is compatible with my 2015 Record BB?
Also, what other brands could possibly work, SRAM, Shimano? I know I'd have to do a different bb but they seem much more affordable than Campy.

I don't know the answer but I have a 11 speed Chorus crank on an otherwise 10 speed Chorus grouppo.
It works fine. I got the correct BB cups and it's perfect.
Don't sweat whether it works for your current BB, Campy cups are like $30. They don't have bearings. They are simply a carrier.

Campy ultratorque cranks are all cross compatible. The bearings are pressed onto the axles, so the cups can be reused. There's not enough difference with the 12 speed rings to cause a problem. The crank is removed by using a 10mm hex wrench to remove the joining bolt between the two halves of the spindle.
