anywhere in the archives. Does anyone know what a Super Champion Competition rim
weigh? I seem to recall they were a step up in heft from the Arc en Ciel, and
weighed about 380 grams, roughly equivalent to the Fiamme Red Label, but as I
say I can't find it, nor does D. Rinard's data base include this item. Thanks
for your help.

Don't forget everyone, you can also check the 1982 Cycl-ology Catalog Scans: <http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/CYCL-OLOGY10-1982CoversIndexProducts/Handbo ok_Pg125?full=1>
<http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/CYCL-OLOGY10-1982CoversIndexProducts/Handbo ok_Pg126?full=1>
Note that all of the first three Super Champion models listed down the left side of Pg.127 have an oval CHAMPION decal, so you will still need to determine the model of your rims for comparison: <http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/CYCL-OLOGY10-1982CoversIndexProducts/Handbo ok_Pg127?full=1>
