You forget the much-hushed Campagnolo factory anodizing accident of 1978. The blood of many went into making the pink and greens.
The damages were settled out of court and the media paid to keep quiet about the matter. It took me 14 years of undercover investigative research to discover the production count was down for the month of July 1978. Combined with an unnecessary level of factory renovation expenditure for that same year it was possible to deduce something fishy was going on. The Campag execs were covering something up. It was only after successfully posing as Bob Campagnolo and gaining access to the death bed of mysterious uncle Tullio Campagnolo that I was able to extract the information about the pink and green stem pads.
My search for the impossible then moved to Japan...
