Identify mystery crankset?

I bought this today. It was listed on CL as a Campy NR, and looked like it in the picture. The chain rings are Campy but the spider is something else. Logo looks like a stylized "G", rear is marked Strada 175. It was only $30, and worth it to me for the chain rings so I bought it.

But what is it**********

I think it's a Gipiemme
Look at the crank midway through the page.
Familiar?

It really looks like a Sugino Mighty Compe, except for the distinctly Italian "strada" on the back. The other possibility would be Ofmega, but I tend to think cmdr is correct.

Pretty sure that stylized "G" is for Galli...it's a fine crank, but maybe prone to cracking like all the Italian alloy Campy and Campy-clones of this era, so watch for signs. 9/16 x 20 F is standard threading, not French.

here's some more evidence, the logo is actually 2 "G"s for Giovanni Galli and here's a nice shot of it on some Galli derailleur packaging:
