I've got a Comete from 84 on my turbo trainer bike, and a light alloy Challenger (heavy as f~ck) sitting in my garage. Both eight speed compat screw on. At the time they were truly sensational things, rumbling along the road in local tens and 25's. I managed to pull out a low 58' with my first attempt on a Comete, a whole 80 seconds faster than I ever went before. Could've been placebo effect though ;)
