Chorus Brake Spring?

I just mounted a chorus rear brake and it appears to have a weaker spring
than the shimano brakes I am more accustomed to. The brake almost
feels/looks like there is drag in the cable housing, which there isn't. The
brake was purchased used, it appeared clean but I lubed it w/ no
improvement. Is there any adjustment to the pivot points? Is this normal?

The pivot is serviceabel and contains a small ball bearring on chorus
and record brakes. You should be albe to find a diagram on Camagnolos
website.

Yep, take it apart, lube and reassemble. If still a problem bend the
spring out. may because of the lever you are using, if it's a non
Campag one.
