Dale;

Got a couple of "Bicycling" mags that have ads for Power Cams from 1981-82. So they are in. You could buy the crank, frame and crank or the whole bike. Squeeked like heck after about 40 miles. Rode one briefly and had to carry a can of lube for every rest stop. It was a great conversation piece if the rider next to you could hear you. If you tried to sprint and weren't used to it you almost fell over the bars. Weird.
