| Hozan C-915 Spoke Screwing (threading) Machine | longrider | 04/11/2018 08:55 AM |
| Hmmm... This looks very similar to a 1950s Cyclo spoke threader I inherited from my cycle dealer father. I'll post images here shortly, for comparison.

| Campagnolo #1030/2 Plated Brass Pump Head for Silca Pumps | tom dalton | 11/11/2017 09:16 AM |
| The oldest feet were light blue, then in early 80's they were dark blue, and at the end of production they were white. There are also differences over time in the metal part itself, and the markings. |
| Zéfal HPX3 Air Pump | Brucey | 11/02/2017 07:34 PM |
| The pump is available in four different sizes, HPX 1...4
The HPX was a development of an earlier pump the 'HP' model which is a bit lighter in weight and has a simpler handle with no lockout.
The chuck in the HP and HPX models is almost but not quite identical. Not all internal chuck parts interchange between HP and HPX models.
Over time the 'X' in HPX has been either red or white on the side of the pump. Current pumps have a different logo without 'HPX' being prominent. |
| VAR #17 Spoke End Cutter | eaglerock | 07/15/2017 06:54 PM |
| The cable crimper variant is VAR 17 bis, while the spoke cutter variant is VAR 17. The spoke cutter heads (17 A cutter, 17 B anvil) are replaceable, but there are no replaceable heads listed in the 1983 catalog for the cable crimper. If the heads in the 17 bis are removeable, I suspect you could swap the spoke cutter heads in their place. |

| Possibly to clean out water bottles? |
| Campagnolo Special Grease | sbarner | 04/25/2017 10:44 PM |
| Since Campagnolo never owned a refinery, this is most likely a standard white lithium grease, and probably nothing special, since the oil had a tendency to separate out over time. Judging from the fact that the grease was visibly different from jar to jar over time, and that many Campy parts came from the factory with totally different types of grease, the reverence that we mechanics placed in this stuff was misplaced. |
| Campagnolo #713 Pedal Wrench / Campagnolo BB Fixed Cup Remover | sbarner | 04/25/2017 10:36 PM |
| The Campagnolo toolkit included a length of tubing that fits over one side of the handle to give extra leverage. Early toolkits with the wooden separator instead of the later plastic, included another rod that was knurled at one end and sized at the other end to fit into the hole that goes through the female threaded part of the tool, to provide leverage when installing or removing the tool. |
