The 1987 catalog contains a wealth of
information about equipment that most riders have probably
forgotten. Wedged between the classic Super Record/Nuovo Record
era and the modern age, 1987's gear was varied and full of hidden
treasures, like the "Synt" brake shoes and a plethora of
rims.
Yes, there were some great items--Cobalto
brakes come to mind--but did anyone
much mourn the demise of Syncro, Campagnolo's first (failed) attempt to
jump onto the index-shifting bandwagon?
Presented below, the various parts of a
set of individual 1987 brochures. Enjoy.
