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.
