If it's a tall tale, the red plastic bits in the levers are a nice embellishment. This set is still reasonably within what a similar set of regular Cobaltos in similar condition might fetch, but is higher than a set missing its blue plastic cabochons (which seem to go for around 150USD in their locknuts by themselves). If these hit 1000USD, look out for green sets for the Irish national team etc. to magically appear.

> Members of the Hoarde: There is an interesting auction on eBay that describes a set of brake calipers as Russian team red-ruby (slippers?) Cobalto brakes. eBay item # 190340799658 Has anyone ever heard of these or is it some new level of marketing I should consider? Are the bidders seriously informed or suckers? BT
