Two more questions then. Will normal 144 chainrings fit the Mistral, leaving aside cosmetics, will they work? Also, I've heard Ofmega BB axles had a different taper from most. Will JIS axles work perhaps, or Phil Wood?

The Mistral crankset came out I believe in 85, give or take a year, I
ordered one in 86 for a Daccordi I picked up in Sicily. The sad part was
they were out of stock so I got the Ofmega Super Competizione, but after
years of regret got one on Ebay. They would definitely go on a mid 80's
Italian frame, maybe not on topic for CR but the coolest cranks ever made in
my opinion. Two one Ebay now

Anyone know in what time span the Ofmega Mistal crank was originally available? I alway thought the crank looked very cool. And having a number of bikes for which all-Campy (except brakes) is the only correct equipment, including three Paramounts, Two Raleigh Pros and an International, a Windsor Pro, an Allegro Special and a Legnano Tipo Roma, I get a bit bored with the all-Campy thing. So I have several Italian framesets, mostly earlty to mid 80's that I'd like to build up with Italian but non-Campy bits, incuding two Gianni Mottas, a Torpado and as Masi Prestige. The Mistral seems like a good option, but I'm not sure if it was around in the On-Topic early 80's, or only later in that decade.
