Hi Jeff,

I have an NOS Campy '84 Olympic Team frt. hub. It is a solid high flange (3.5" diam. flange), 73mm O.L.D., pista (you could convert to strada), 28h. This is an extremely rare item.

I know what your thinking. Would he be willing to sell it, or won't he? Well to tell you the truth, in all this Campy hub excitement, I kinda don't know myself. I feel it is HIGHLY collectable. But being as this is the rarest and most powerful pista hub in the world, and could blow you spokes clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do you feel wealthy? Well, do ya punk?

If the fear of hearing the price hasn't scared you away yet, feel free to contact me directly.
