I’ve heard that the new Zwift Play controller is incompatible with Campagnolo (the new £5K SR excepted…). This seems pretty incredible - surely the device has been designed to be compatible with all three major groupset manufacturers?

You may be able to mount them a little low. The thumb shifter is close to the intended mounting point for the controllers, but it might be OK. [image] Zwift play + sterzo Zwift Equipment [20230620_151611] It’s still perfectly useable.

Having looked at a bunch of pictures of the system I don’t see why it shouldn’t work with Campagnolo EPS (which is what I have) as long as it isn’t mounted in the highest possible position. With EPS, because it’s electronic the button doesn’t really need to move much when pressed (just a couple of m…

i was wondering if you couldn’t just reverse mount them with the controllers on the outside of the bars. You would have to use a finger to press the buttons, but that shouldn’t be a problem.

Interesting idea. Of course what would be really useful would be zwift actually providing proper information about compatibility with widely used equipment… :wink:

I also have campa and was seriously in doubt on what to do with it. Bought them, and tried a first ride over the weekend… works just fine. Typically, you have 3 steps in your shifters…so far I tried shifting 2 gears down (back) or 2 steps on your front. Still to check is whether 3 steps/gears down …

Looks like it should be fine with any Campagnolo shifters with sensible placement. The EPS button comes down a little further but doesn’t really move in use, so I can’t see why it wouldn’t work. I wonder why Zwift say it isn’t compatible - just covering their backs in a legal sense in case someone …

Matijs, I wonder if you could take a side-shot picture?

Chorus, Record and SR have 5 click/step pushes with the thumb for the rear shifter.

Yup, but you don’t need to use all 5 clicks unless you want to shift 5 gears at a time, and maybe if you just put the Zwift Play a little further down on the bars you could use all 5 clicks…?

no doubt, rarely need 5 clicks, especially since I don’t have trainer difficult at 100%, there’s never too drastic of a need for large shift changes.
