Chuck:
Your are right, I have no hard production numbers; speculating and musing. I am hoping to develop a sense of the complexity of the industry.
With my unfamiliarity of the industry, it seems like a lot of hubs. For any given production year, one has to sum a world-wide enterprise: Major bike manufacturers spec'ing Campag hubs; medium and small builders; over the counter sales of hub sets. Then there is racing, promotions, shows, re-work...
Good for Tulio his workmen could adjust hubs a lot faster than I.

I think you're overestimating the size of Campagnolo's operation in 1995. I haven't visited since '95 so I have no idea what they do today though.
