Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Sorry for the derail, but at least the question's italian

Thanks sashae. From what I can tell the c-record track cranks are almost identical to the current record track cranks, but with the campy shield logo as opposed to the lettering on the newer ones. From what I understand the c-record/super record mix was pretty common in the eighties.

common in the late 80s. C Rec came out in 85-86 time frame. there were about 3 types. All engraved besides the latest ones. The Gianni are first generation The bike was the way the original owner got it in 85 except the flight saddle.

(initial build/pre-ride pic)
different bars (now have grips) - aside from that, it is pretty much a redneck mix of parts. Built strong, not pretty.

I think Serottas (bikes) are more Brit in heritage than italian.

Just face it Dennis, you can't be part of the cool Italian club. Sorry buddy. We all still like riding with you though. That counts for something right?

Dammit. I guess that you'll just have to fork over the casati justin. You know its too small for you anyways. I think I can deal with the small frame difference.
