I also have a "No Record" high flange track hub (no oiler) with '65 locknuts.

My Campagnolo "No Record" large flange rear hub is locknut dated as 1965. In other words, this hub has an oiler clip and just says "Campagnolo" - it does not say "Campagnolo Record".

I think there might be a flaw in the Campagnolo Timeline, or at least a misleading statement. The timeline says that "No Record" hubs were dropped from the catalogue in 1963. However, I have a set of "No Record" hubs locknut-dated as 1965. There is not any evidence that the rear axle locknuts were replaced - why would you ever replace the locknuts ? so I think that perhaps the catalogues do not match the actual sequencing of the parts in production.

In fact every detail of this carlton flyer bike suggests a 1966 model. The bike has a steel record derailleur, cable stop on front derailleur, 151 bcd crankset w/o lip, campy headset w/o <C>, dropouts w/hole for gransport, and it appears the bike is all original. The bike even has clarks cables, white ribbed raleigh tape, and milremo star bar plugs and a period brooks pro seat. The weinmann brakes are unusual and must fit somewhere between 1962 and 1971/2.

Does anyone else have some mid 1960's "No Record" Campy hubs ??
