I think that it is Campagnolo's Cambio corsa shifter. I can't tell if it's got 2 rods or 1. If it is one rod it is the rarer Paris Roubaix. Basically to shift the rider reached down to the lever on the rear brake stay which opened the quick release skewer then the other lever was turned to the direction of the cog you wanted whilst back pedalling the cranks. Once the required gear was selected the quick release was refastened. You have to remember that this was all down whilst pedaling in racing conditions .MichaelB wrote:What sort of shifting mechanism is that ?silverlight wrote:BlockChains Gana

A late 80's 50cm (?) Tange Infinity Victory Tri-A for sale on eBay at the moment (not mine). Might be a nice sub-2kg frame for a shorter person.....munga wrote:57cm c-c square repco victory tri a (tange infinity?) frame - 2130g

could i expect to find a 1500g steel frame, custom or otherwise?
how much would the lightest available (traditional geometry) 54-58cm steel frame weigh in at?
