Last time I competed was on a Legnano bicycle, just after Campagnolo launched the first aluminum chainset. Now my favorite bicycle is a Moots 6/4. That said, my preference now is for a LIGHT frame with a relaxed geometry, preferably Ti. I hope I'm not a cockroach at a chicken dance in this board. In any case, thank you for having me here. I promise to keep a low profile. :o

What year did Campagnolo launch the first aluminum chainset (or crank. as we Yanks would say)?

First, please note that when I registered, the darn auto-correct provided me with the name Jacqueline. Not that I'm in any way biased but I'm a male-type specimen of the species. For whatever that's worth.

That cleared, thank you for the kind and generous welcome.

And, no. I no longer own that lovely Legnano. I went to live away for some time, gave it to an old cycling friend who died and I lost track of his family. I might be mistaken, but I remember buying what I think was the first aluminum Record crank-set in the mid-sixties, maybe 1964.
