Is that some sort of campy/SRM combo?

Anyone?

Yes

It looks like the SRM Amateur Road Crank with Campy rings to me.
I’ll shoot him an email and find out for sure.

Are you sure those are Campag rings? As far as I am aware they didn’t produce black chainrings, at least to the public.

I’ll guess that he has an SRM Am drive side crank arm with what appears to be TA or perhaps Stronglight Chainrings. The non-drive side arm does appear to be a Campagnolo Carbon one, perhaps he wanted to shave the 20 grams.

Herbert seems to have the inside track, but I’ll put $0.25 on my guess. I’m sure those aren’t Campagnolo made chainrings.

Hello,

This sounds like a cool contest, what do we win when Herbert gets the answer. My entry is a SRM driveside and a Campy non-drive with aftermarket rings. If we have to be specific I’ll go FSA rings. I don’t know why but the SRM non-drive side has gotten a poor reputation. Gordo says never to use it. I dont know what the issue is though.

I think Gordo actually answered that a week ago or so… he says it gives you major style points to run your regular crank on the left (according to a pal of his, anyways). Apparently there’s nothing wrong w/ the left SRM. It’s basically saying, look, I have an SRM AND a Record set.

The pic attached is of the SRM Amateur Road crank which is available in Shimano and Campagnolo compatibility according to Schoberer Messtechnik.

SRM crank on one side and Campag crank on the other side according to Cam, but only for this race.

I would love to see Cameron Brown’s power data from IMNZ. I do not expect he would share that info though - only Gordo does that it seems. However, I suppose it is possible to guess with decent accuracy what the power data would be. My guess is normative power of about 290???
