View Full Version : FUN - ID campy bits and pieces!

So I bought a box of Misc. campy items on ebay for just shy of 90 dollars. Mostly for the 180mm strada cranks (which are so sweet and I am very happy with! but need rings for though I can use sugino ones in the mean time)... anyway there were many skewers, a record rear hub body, a front hub, 2 set of campy shifters (1 set is pictured with a set I already had), 1 complete BB, 2 campy adjustable english cups, 2 adj. italian (no fixed italian:mad: ), a complete english BB and 4 other campy spindles, all of which seem to bee in good shape, a campy frame pump head (i was very excited to find this), 1 campy pump bracket (bit of chrome missing but in overall good shape, and finally 2 mystery pieces in a bag of hex bolts (are these bolts campy? I dunno). So here are the pics...my questions are.

1. What kind of front hub is this
2. What kind of skewers are these and are the straight ones old record?
3. What are the various skewer nuts? the ones on either end do not say campy on them though I am fairly certain the one on the far left is campy as it matched a skewer.
4. What are these 2 odd pieces, both say campy, one is steel, the nut thing is alluminum.

It would be helpful to see a size comparison to the two odd pieces - say compared to a quarter or something.

At first look, the round thing looks like either the end cap to a pump maybe, or a dust cap of some sort depending on its size. Pedal dust cap maybe?

The second, the only thing that comes to mind is a tire guide that would go on a brake pad to help guide the tire back on. Shape isn't exactly the same as those I took off a pair of 80's Shimano 600 brakes, but certainly have a resemblance. Beyond that, I'm out of guesses.

In the top left and right pictures, I'm guessing the nut like thing is a shift lever adjusting nut. THe other angular thing is a bolt on shoe guide that attaches to the inside of the leading pedal cage. It is to prevent the front edge of your shoe from getting caught on the front edge of the pedal cage when using toe clips. Campy toe clips have this thing integrated into their toeclips.

The round knurl edged nut in the first & third photos is a cincher for a shifter. Can't recall what model shifters that sported them are though.

1. Triomphe or Victory, skewer is not original, and would be the main factor to tell the two apart. Chances are it's Triomphe, for there's a Triomphe skewer in that collection of them there...

2. Unk, Triomphe, unk, Grand Sport.

3. Triomphe (belongs on that front hub of yours), unk, Grand Sport, unk, unk.

4. I'm quite certain the nut is a Campy pedal dustcap. The other piece is a Campy "fixing shoe plate" for the pedals, P/N #7283021 by itself, or complete with washer and screw, P/N #0110056.

I'll try to fill in the blanks later on today (along with your Raleigh USA pictures). Hopefully if I can get the pages seperated in my water-damaged Campy catalouge No.17, I might be able to get you some more info here.

Take care,

-Kurt

The two odd pieces are...well the one on the right is a brake bolt/pad guide. You put it in between the brakes and the pads to guide the wheel when putting back in. The saucer shaped thing looks like pedal cap.

Or...I could be COMPLETELY wrong which is not unusual. :)

The thing that looks like a pedals cap (pics 1 and 2) threads on to an M5 bolt which is why it has my confused, but it is about the size of a quarter. I suppose the second could be a bake piece, but it seems aweful small and it take an M5 bolt also. I am guessing on the pedal thing. Does someone have a picture of this? I can't quite figure it out. Skewer 3 in pic 5 is exactly the same as those found in my low flange 1984 record hubs and skewer end nut 4 would be the match. Also for the Tromphe hub, The skewer in it, IS campy so I don't know why someone would have changed it... but who knows.

Trust me, it is the cinch nut from a shifter. Instead of the more common wire loop style like on the shifter set on the right in the last photo, Campagnolo used a solid disk with a knurled edge. I have that shifter set in a parts box in my garage. If I remember this weekend, I'll try to post up a pic of it.

I'll send you a photo from one of my Campy catalouges showing the breakdown with the pedal dust cap. It's supposed to thread onto the pedal shaft.

The skewer is Campy? That's one hell of a big skewer...looks like one of Campy's MTB parts. Will check the various catalogues later.

Take care,

Ohhhh pedal clips! Yeah, they go under the pedal so you can tap it up! I think that its. Brake pad guide, what was I thinking.

Not quite.... the shoe plates attached to the inside of the front pedal cage to keep the toe of your shoe from getting caught on the front pedal cage when using toe clips and straps.

I still can't picture this, I'm gonna go pull out the campy pedals and examine.

Does this help with the round thingie? Shifter cinch nut. These shifters are from my '66 Paramount.
