I also noticed that the crankset on the right (#365, the right hand threaded Triomphe?) the spider section is more heavily machine and delicate looking. That strikes me as a bit ironic since I would have thought this was the less expensive of the two cranksets. Of course, in the Campi-land of that era all sorts of strange phenomena were possible.
By the way, what an education I'm getting this week about
various esoterica. I used to think all steel Cinelli stems had
badges. This week I learned this isn't true. I used to think
the Victory and Triomphe cranksets were the same except for the
quality of the polishing. Now I've learned that to be
incorrect. Amazing...
