Hello, recently bought a new FD for my 2013, 11spd super record groupset. I was sent a 2015 front derailleur in error, before I send it back and try to find an older FD will this one work with my 2013 ergo shifters? Campy website says no, but any idea why?
Thanks

Curious about this exact thing myself since I'd like to swap out my FDer/RDer/Shifters (2013/14) for the new '15 stuff, but would prefer to do it piecemeal. Or rather, my wallet would prefer to do it piecemeal. If someone does it, I'd love to hear how it goes.

I don't think it will work either.. the 2015 parts are all coded in which will work together.. If I recall all the 2015 parts have an "A" on the back to show they work together.. doesn't mean it won't though...

Mine works perfectly. Running a 2015 Chorus FD on my 2013 Record Shifters and I would say it is as good if not better than the front shifting on my other bike that is all 2013 Record. Maybe I am not difficult but I would take that combo any day. I feel it gets the chain up from the small ring with significant more ease.
Cheers
