aha!
if only my copy of the data book wasnt on loan right now - i could find the page, but i beleive there is a rebour illustration of this very crankset in there somewhere... the crankbolts with a cruciform engagement pattern for the tool, the keyed, tapered spindle... its all exactly the same...
ive been looking for confirmation that this was a magistroni design for years now, as the commentary in le cycliste stated that it was, but i had no way to confirm, nor anyone whod ever seen or heard of this crankset before! so im thrilled to see this set... if i werent in the middle of a move, id dig through my magazines and find the illustration there, in lieu of the data book...
blast!
