I second that second.

If you think about it, those three items were the only ones that had major, significant changes made to them from their original "Record" predecessors.

One could certainly argue about the BB, but that was a big change IMO, and I think Tullio was very proud of the rifling and it's contribution to bearing cleanliness!

Having said that, there are several components that many commonly refer to as "NR," and that's not generally a problem. Calling SL pedals SR is NOT the same thing, though, in my book. I'd bet at least 50% of the SL pedals for sale on eBay are listed as SR. Not good. Heck, I've seen an NOS Record post in its box described as Super Record on eBay! Hello!

Caveat emptor....

e-CHUCKIE's correct!
   there's no such thing as a nuovo record pedal,
   only a record pedal. check the archives; i think we
   did this 3-4 months ago. the only parts that were
   spec-ed as nuovo record were rear derailleurs,
   bottom brackets, and short dropouts. all other parts
   remained 'record'.
