i don't have anything nearly as rare as what y'all got but I do have a few pretty special pista including a 66-42 crest logo set of cinelli bars. the width is what makes them rare and they are mated to a first gen 1A stem with 7mm binder key and 12mm nut for the stem. Others have these, likely many on the CR list, but they are not easy to find.

It might be a little bit too new but I have a set of magura hydraulic rim brakes but with drop bar levers.

AdjustaBell, what a POC. I got two of these in a big box-o-parts. I put one of them on a mixte and rang the bell 10 times; on the eleventh ring the plastic spring broke. I saved the other with packaging for posterity.

This might also be the ugliest component I own: a short-lived Weinmann cable hanger with quick release.

Of all the unusual parts I have the most unusual may be a set of Weinmann zac 19 rims(common as dirt) , in 635 English roadster size.

I have a few pretty neat things I've found, but the ones that probably are most impressive are this rather unusual set of fenders:

If you can see on the handlebars of this 1952 Schwinn Meteor there is a St Christopher, it came with the bike that I bought for 20 bucks..(-:

Well, in that case, we need better pics of the lugs.

I don't think that there were many made of these

Stronglight PR300 (pista?) pedals. My set for some reason does not have the Stronglight molded on branding on the resin body, plus it has aluminum cage mounting screws, which the very few that I have seen out there does not match..... Could they be prototype versions sent to pro teams to "beta" test??
They are going on my Peugeot PY10FC build......

Flickstands

Flickstands - by Rhode Gear I think.

I am still using three of them on bikes that we ride. There are two flickstands in the second picture.

Another Stronglight item....

Stronglight Delta hubs......
I've only seen one other set since I found mine like 4 years ago.....
The Wolber Profil 20 Aero tubular rimmed wheelset that I used these hubs to build up will also be used on my ongoing Peugeot PY10FC build......

Someone in the bike industry, who knows I like to wrench on bikes gave me this. It's a Park Tool L315 cotter pin press. I cleaned it up and will lubricate the threads. It's in almost new condition. How sweet he gave it to me.
