Did Campagnolo EVER let others brand products of their manufacture within the CR timeframe? I can't recall any. Kurt Sperry Bellingham WA Kurt: Not to my knowledge. However, Campy sub-contracted some parts, so unless they had a 100% exclusivity agreement with that particular supplier (FB, OMAS, Gipiemme, SKF, etc.), that supplier would be free to sell some of those components to other customers, and even brand them as they saw fit....
