I was time trailing in the 80,s on a Raleigh 753 ex team bike, running Campy Nuovo. It was beautiful I just loved looking at it, Italian style what,s not to love. Anyway a guy from my club turned up with a box and a huge smile on his face. Called us over and opened the box, I think most of dribbled at the contents Ofmega Mistral chainset, (still gets me moist today)
It really was a thing of beauty in fact at the time none of us had seen anything quite like it. I had a bad car crash a little while later fractured C3 and C4. Spent nearly 6 months in a body frame so that finished the time trailing and I never got to own the chainset.
Until now that is, found on t'bay last night and purchased, I think this chainset will look great against the frame. Was thinking about selling until I found the Ofmega, going to keep and build the rest up the same now.
