I chose to go with Super Record for my '85 Cinelli as I was able to source last generation Super Record components. I think 1st generation C-record is difficult to find but, given the choice, I would have gone with the Campy 1st generation C-Record groupset with the Cobalto brakes as it was the 'new' thing.
Would 1985 have been a transition year from Super Record to C-Record?
I think aesthetically, the C-Record group is much nicer, I have picked up this Cramerotti for the group recently...and I have a couple of different sets of C-Record wheels. I probably wouldn't even need to change the bar tape, I think the blue ribbon Benotto tape would look great with the silver frameset and a white Rolls saddle...
