I purchased a campy kit with Italian threads also - I ended up purchasing replacement English cutters made by Cobra. They're less expensive than campy and very good quality. I got mine from Ceeway frame building supplies in UK. They actually had one campy cutter left so one side is campy and the other cobra. Silva also makes cutters that will fit the campy tool (but more expensive than Cobra). I believe that Cobra and Silva are both Italian brands. Also got a separate Cobra steerer threader tool for not to much. There are other places to get Cobra and Silva cutters domestically - do some google searching. I got mine from Ceeway because I was getting some other stuff from them at the same time(it's all expensive as the dollar is not strong). Joe Bringheli has some of this stuff also (or can get it) and is very nice to work with. He's near Cleveland.

My recommendation would be to keep the Italian cutters - you never know when you might need them and then............ Hope this is helpful. Have fun.

Hello, I have a complete and a reduced Campy tool kit. Both with Italian taps/guides. Does anybody have English to swap, or that I can buy? E-mail me off list if you can help.

Thank you,
