Subject: [CR]French track wheels for sale/Item wanted

I have the following interesting wheels for sale:

French track wheels. Normandy high-flange track hubs. Smooth flange, no ridge. Small oval cutouts in the flanges. Very nice Mavic polished aluminum rims--no ferrules, these rims use washers. They look a lot like old Nisis, actually. Galvanized spokes in good shape. With lock-ring and what appear to be the original axle nuts with integral washers. I bought these for a fixed-gear project, but changed course with it, so I no longer need them. I'd just like to get my investment back out of them. I'm guessing early 70s on these. Great for a french track frame of the period. I'll rebuild the hubs and polish them up for you. $165 shipped in the lower 48. Trades considered. I'm looking for various items, including a first or second-generation Campagnolo Record alloy crankset (the one from the late 50s or early 60s with the very square-profile arms and the larger BCD, with rings. 170mm. Rare, I know, but if any group might have one to sell or trade, this one would)

Item needed: I need a single Universal Extra *rear* brake caliper, preferably with pads, but they're not required. If you have a front I suppose we could talk and I could find a rear bolt elsewhere. If you have a matched set of Extras to sell, that could work also. And I need matching levers (or close--61 or 68 levers might work also) with or without hoods.

I also need the aforementioned crank. If you have one you might sell, let me know.

Please e-mail me privately about these items..

Thanks.
