No 'performance' difference, and I could not tell them
apart, but box says '04' or '05' and some customers won't
accept a 'last year' component.

Carbon cage on the 2005, aluminum on 2004(which became Chorus in 2005)...

I had to look in the catalogs myself but the last Record
aluminum cage was 2003.

2004 and 2005 both have woven carbon body plate and sintered
carbon cage plates.

In my store, a certain type of 'person' will only buy
current model Campagnolo Record and then only if the package
seals are not broken. Pehaps the seller would rather bring
all his inventory to current model.

Thanks...sometimes all these changes blend together. We have a customer
who has to match all the logos on Campag stuff. Black backrounds on the
name type stuff...retail, best and worse job there is.

Is anybody remembering the "egg inspector" in the movie Clerks?

Campagnolo seems to change their designs every 3 years. When they
change, mostly, record becomes chorus, chorus becomes centaur, centaur
becomes veloce, etc. (except for the cranks, it seems.)

The last design change happened in 2004. Therefore, one would not
expect to see ANY difference between a 2004 and 2005 derailleur.

Yow, current model with "seals not broken" or "matching logos"!
Hopefully these certain type of "person" or "customers" get charged
accordingly, they deserve it!
