And do we add to the list:
mod.77 - 1977 (center pull) mod.CX - 198? (side pull)
I also have a brake set on my ~'64 Legnano Gram Premio that look like Super 68s (the have the same quick release mechanism) but are longer reach and have UNIVERSAL EXTRA stamped/forged into the arm on one side and BREV.453949 on the other side. Incidentally this is the same patent # that is stamped/forged into the quick release arm of the Super 68 calipers. Anyone know what model/year these are for certain?
Any others? Now all we need are definitive photos of each of these and we'd be all set! :-)
