Hey, gang.

I've been unsuccessful finding the answers I'm looking for, most likely due to looking in the wrong places. Going through some of the photos at the L'eroica site I see some pictures of bicycles equipped with Campy Cambio Corsa deraillers. It looks like these probably had 3 rear sprockets. Can anyone tell me what a typical setup would have been? I'm interested in the number of sprockets and the tooth count on the sprockets and chainwheel.

Thanks a bunch. Much appreciated. Please let me know if I need to clarify anything.
