Hi Ben,
These were produced by Ofmega, who also made the Bianchi crank for that

Actually, these sound a lot older vintage than anything Ofmega produced.
These sound more like 1950s (or earlier) era and Ofmega wasn't even around at that
time. However, Campy did make hubs that were at some point stamped with
Bianchi, Legnano, & other marques.
