That was, indeed, the conclusion I had come to and the question I was asking. It appears that the bike in question is equipped with a Campagnolo coaster brake hub, in steel, 24H, with an oiler hole....

...and he claims the front hub is rare, too. I wonder what *it* is, given that I've never seen another one like the rear.

Perhaps he simply has front and rear confused, but that still leaves us with the question of whether this was ever a production item, and, if so, what year(s)?

Thanks,

I think the guy lost something in translation. It's a coaster brake hub/not a pista. Anyone know when Campy made them?

Ok, so what is the hub on this puppy, really? The caption says it's Campagnolo Pista, but that doesn't seem right. Why would a track hub have a coaster brake torque reaction arm on it?
