Dave,

I think Charles mentioned that his were milled all the way through from front to back. I have not seen the ones he speaks of, but I have seen many of the ones you speak of. Yes, they came on a few different Bianchis, as well as Colnagos, Cellinis, Bassos, etc.

While I LOVE panto'd parts, I have always disliked that particular style. I feel the groove is way too wide, and it obliterates the Campy stamping on both sides. Not very elegant in my opinion.

Charles et al. I thought these "milled out" calipers you refer to, were stock on Bianchi Specialissimas up into the early 80s. The ones I have always seen had blue paint" within the milled out sections. Cheers, Dave Anderson Cut Bank MT
