If Campagnolo did "tuning" of their own components similar to what is seen on this bike, I've certainly never heard of it. Who in the bike business for 20 years would call the gruppo hung on that Super Record either? You can see the big chainring, brake levers and headset are all clearly not SR, the rear derailleur looks like a NR too, but it's hard to be sure nevermind that SR didn't exist in '71. And would Campagnolo fit what appear to be Arnold Industries Al-alloy bolts there? And are those Cinelli pedals? Did those have Campagnolo dust caps perhaps?
Cool bike still, but makes one wonder.
