Charles,
For whatever it may be worth, I have only very recently posted a digital copy of the 1974 3ttt / Bicycle Parts Pacific catalog to my Wool Jersey Album (...primarily in an attempt to address questions previously asked in this forum by Bill Roberts and Chuck Schmidt). You may find said catalog using this convenient link:

I believe that page 3 of this publication does provide at least some details regarding the Superleggero bars to which you refer. As for the actual date of their introduction, while this particular catalog first appeared in late 1974 for what would likely be considered the 1975 model year, my own feeble recollection is that I saw these 3ttt Superleggero bars for the first time (...or more accurately, I should say that I saw printed reference to these bars for the first time) much earlier in 1974. Whether or not they were in production prior to that point in time, I cannot verify nor could I deny any assertions thereof. Moreover, I cannot account for whether my own introduction to their existence coincided with their initial production offering worldwide or merely their first appearance domestically.

Does anyone happen to know when the 3ttt superleggere bars
were introduced? What year?
Also, has anyone noticed that the 3ttt SL bars seem to be
too narrow to allow the use of Campagnolo levers? The
clamps go all the way to the end of travel before they
tighten down on these bars..the last time I found this out,
I used some tape as a shim and it worked ok, but what a
kluge..
