Campagnolo 1976 Advertisement — The Ultimate Derailleur

[Left-hand page: a painted, enlarged view of a chrome Campagnolo Super Record rear derailleur on a dark brown background, with white circles and lines leading to ten captions.]
Pre-lubricated, titanium pivot bolts with wide journal bearing surfaces at each end for longevity without developing wear and slop.
The inner and outer arms and upper and lower body parts are hot forged from a special light alloy to give the best combination of strength and wear resistance.
Simple and sure cable fixing clamp. No hole to thread frayed cable ends through. Will not shear off cable when tightening as other methods can.
Replaceable brass bushing and solid aluminum pin construction. Eliminates the wear on body arms that causes the slop found in other brands.
Pre-lubricated, special plastic roller with steel insert that spins on a sintered bronze roller bushing for maximum lateral thrust capabilities, minimum friction and better wear characteristics than steel-to-steel or steel-to-plastic bushing combinations found in other derailleurs.
Removable stop for easy disassembly of lower pivot point for cleaning, lubrication, or spring tension adjustment.
Adjustable lower pivot spring to restore operating speed and feel to a like-new condition.
Cage plates are cold forged out of a special alloy to eliminate flex when shifting.

The Ultimate Derailleur.
The Ultimate — a standard by which all others are measured and the principle upon which Campagnolo exists. The Ultimate is a demand for precision engineering with superb materials and meticulous quality control for consistent maximum performance.
That’s why our derailleurs, unlike any others, are made incorporating most of the features shown here (only the titanium bolts are exclusive to the Super Record), because we know they have to withstand the tremendous stress and force of thousands of shifts.
Campagnolo’s Technical Support Team provides assistance at many major races around the country. Look for the Campagnolo van. We’re behind you all the way.
And that’s why Campagnolo had earned its reputation for making the bicycle components most European racers use and for winning the most important races around the world.
Campagnolo components may cost more, but as you can see, they’re worth it.
When you explain the differences to your customers, they’ll think Campagnolo is worth it too.
And when you sell Campagnolo, you’ll make more too.
