There is unbelievably more vintage Campagnolo information here on the CR list than at any desk in Campagnolo USA. These folks are frequently hard pressed to answer questions about new stuff much less older goods. Also do not assume others would have interest (any interest at all!) in vintage stuff. I am frequently shocked, observing an almost hostile attitude toward vintage related questions like that. It seems sort of like "How can I make money answering questions about that old stuff?" This is not true just with Campagnolo. There also are a few "legendary" USA frame builders who have a disdain and dislike for vintage minded folks like us... That's why the CR list is so valuable for our "pre-occupation" with these vintage goods.
