Mark, I have the right crank of a Super Mighty, labelled as such on the arm, that is 144 bcd and the spiders with elongated holes. This must be the Comp. I also have one with the elongated holes on the spider, 110 bcd, very nice finish, but nothing on the crank arm indicating the model. Then I have another 110 bcd, not finished as well, without the elongated holes. This may be the regular ol Mighty Tour. Confused? Me too.
