General Information

ICS Chrome plated version of the Campagnolo Colbalto brakeset.

"Campagnolo Super Record" is a road groupset which represented the highest grade from the middle '70 to the middle '80.
Its production ended in 1987, when it has been passed two year since the new group production, the C-Record.

As a replacement while the problems with Delta brakeset was solved, Campagnolo introduced the "Cobalto" brakeset,
which was basically a Super Record brakeset with a blue stone set in the recess of a mounting nut. Cobalto brake calipers
can be diffrentiated from the rest also for the blue "Campagnolo" writing.

Don't you mean highly polished rather than chrome-plated? Last time I checked I was unaware of any feasible possibility of adhering chrome to aluminum.

You cannot plate directly onto aluminum-based materials, but it is an easy material to plate if you properly prepare the substrate. It can be zinc-plated by first using a zincate process followed by either a cyanide or acid zinc plating solution; then copper plated, then chrome or gold plated.
