So its hard for me to reconcile the bike being post '65, even knowing that parts is parts and builders buy in bulk I just gotta think that Cino would have used all the '60 dropouts he bought in bulk at the start of the decade. Whatever, it's been "restoved to a very high order" so for the most anal of Cinelli-o-philes, it's moot in Phelpsie's bikes case.

The dropout with the single small hole next to the derailleur mounting hole (it's a Gran Sport dropout) is from 1951 and the introduction of the Gran Sport and Sport derailleurs.

The single pulley Sport derailleur was around for a couple of decades.

It's all in the Campagnolo Timeline http://velo-retro.com/tline.html
