I myself was guilty of culling a few pairs of Turkey levers and "spoke protector discs" in the 80's but now I'm thinking that one day they will be sought after by many C&Vers nostalgic about that short span of time when they were accepted by a public awakening to one of the biggest bike booms in history. I still remember gladly taking off one of those clear plastic discs from one of my Peugeots the minute I got the bike home from the bike store. had a nice shiney aluminum center with lightening holes on it and had big cryptic French markings going around the clear plastic disc on it that said "MAILLARD HELICOMATIC" I wonder what that meant??
I think I should have kept that thing.
I don't know what ever happened to those Weinmann "safety" levers and Maillard spoke discs, but they must be in some corner of an apartment storage basement area I left behind in Milwaukee al those years ago together with all those missing single socks and winter gloves that all snuck away from me while I wasn't looking......
