Stronglight Super-Competition 57 introduced in 1957. Top of the range chainset. Anquetil, Darrigade, Bobet and countless other top Pro's used these chainsets in the late 50's & 60's. Standard on the following teams Heylett, Peugeot and Geminiani Teams. In 1959 the following Stronglight chainsets were available. Cottered Competition 3 arm steel and No.45 Competition steel 5 pin. Cotterless 49D 5pin and Super Competition 5 arm both in dural.

Best wishes and be lucky. Michael Butler Huntingdon UK.
