Accorging to an ad. of Galli on a magazine1984, the Galli made a
component group sourced from not only Simplex, Stronglight but
also Maillard and Sedis. On the same magazine" Bicicletta" is a
list of bicycles of Italian makers and I find component groups of
Ofmega,GPM, Miche and Galli. And I also find Rino. I cannot find
any ad. of Rino. Does someone know about Rino? Rino was used by 2
makers, Scapin and Meccanica Tre Zeta both of which were in
Padova.
