I believe the Sport was discontinued by about 1960. Reason: until '61 (I think) the Campy dropout had a small hole as the spring stop for the derailleur. Not present in 61 and later, as I recall. (I have a NOS Sport, and gave another to a friend. That one I mounted on a plaque to commemorate his PhD in Mechanical Engineering. Just a reminder that pretty things with prestige names may not work well) harvey sachs
