>>>I am pretty sure those were made for Colnago by FT Bologna. All that I sold in-the-day were aluminum. Never saw steel versions. Also, if I recall correctly, they used unusually small ball bearings...Dale Brown<<<
That's interesting. I have one that was given to me by a friend long ago. It's used but usable and presentable, but there were no bearings with it when I got it. It's been sitting in a box and I recently thought about pulling it out and using it on my '81 Super that I'm just starting to think about building up. I never really gave it a lot of thought because it looks like a direct knock-off of a Super Record HS. Now I'll have to dig it out and play with it and see what's what. Any idea of the size required? Anyone else taken one apart and examined it closely?
