As long as I'm airing all of my controversial views on barely-visible Campy differences, I say there are three reaches. I had two sets of "short reach" block logo record caliper arms that had very different finishes, different markings and different profiles. When I installed mis-mathed pairs on a centerbolt, the ends did not meet up correctly.

Am I correct that there are two lengths of vintage Record calipers...short and long/normal. Or are there three? Does anyone know what was used on the Raleigh Pro...late 70s.

Thanks for any information.
