Probably not the worst place to save $$.., but somehow I always have felt that the cones and cups of the Tipos weren't up to the spec of the record versions.

The Nuovo Tipo hubs with their stamped sheet metal cups (races) are just not up to the quality of the rest of the components on these bikes. Tipos make great training wheels, but to me look out of place on a bike the quality of a Cinelli.
