Jerry,
I'll try anything at this point to get rid of the mis-matched hodge-podge collection of junk on the bike now - looks like someone misplaced them long ago and rummaged through the spare parts coffee can to get it back together. Marked, unmarked? eye don kher - as long as they match and don't add a lot of weight...

I wonder what size bolts Stronglight, TA and Nervar used? Have to admit, I've never measured them. Of course, they wouldn't say Campagnolo, but Stronglight bolts were usually unmarked, so they might be OK.

Jerry,
Yes it is indeed the 3 arm crank of which you speak and can be seen here:

I couldn't believe it myself and was surprised that the ones I bought on ebay didn't fit. I pulled one from my bike and measured it with dial calipers and was AGAIN surprised to see the .354" reading!

There was a three-arm Grand Sport crank which appeared on the Raleigh Competition GS. Are you saying it takes different size chainring bolts than the Campy NR/SR five arm cranks? That surprises me, although I learn something every day.

Hi All,

Yes, 9mm in diameter, not the normal 10mm. I have a '78
Raleigh
Competition GS. The crank is Campy but only has 3 arms,
might be part of
the nuovo gran sport group (?). I've looked on ebay,
shopped online,
brick & mortar bike shops - no luck. Can anyone help? It
would be much
appreciated!

Since I'm a newbie, a little about me: 52 y.o. live in
bay area, my 1st
"serious" bike was a '72 Raleigh Super Course, ended up
selling it in
early '80s and have missed it ever since. Bought a
Peugeot PH10 to
replace it and have ridden that up until now but it just
wasn't the
same. I've always lusted after a full Campy bike so
finally "upgraded"
=09
to a '78 Raleigh Comp GS a couple months ago and have
since been picking
up parts from ebay (mostly) to bring it back to original
condition. I
have learned a lot just by lurking around the archives
here. Thanks for
allowing me to join the group!
