Dave Anderson said "in my experience I have seen about 4 different Campy SR derailluers with the Campy alloy bolts, and only one OMAS bolt kit that contained their version of the alloy pivot Bolts". Is there a catalog number for the Campy alloy pivot bolts? Did they come "stock" that way in a box, or were they seen OEM on bikes?

They were "stock" from Camapgnolo for a very short time, Distributor said that Ti was scarce for a while, (probably too costly). They mysteriously returned to Ti a short time later. For marketing Ti has more mojo than Al. Of course no discount during this period. Part #'s I think stayed the same, a material substitution mot a unique part.

Alloy works just fine.
