We could have reproduction brake hoods made with a version of the Classic Rendezvous logo instead of Campy and for our avid captive market we would sell out immediately. And all this without violating a copyright. David Cooper Chicago, IL USA

David:

This is a real possibility, and has been discussed previously with Dale and others. The logo is on an insert in the tooling, so you could make both no-logo and CR-logo ones from the same mold.

The biggest hitch is that most of us CR listmembers are too cheap to pay more than a token amount for the hoods, so even recovering the tooling costs would be difficult.... ;-)

P.S. Did the "Campy-equipped 'nago" arrive yet?? (Did that to bug e-RICHIE, sorry RS, I couldn't resist....).
