There should be a ton of Nisi clinchers about, they were spec'd on a lot of higher in bikes in the late 80's and early 90's -

Very interesting. I always thought of Nisi as a dominant of the 70s, like Super Champion. I had no idea they were still running. Nisi was the choice of Merckx. I have some knowledge of Galli because they shared some of the manufacturing for Spidel groups, French bikes being a great interest of mine.
Coming back to my earlier post, can anyone suggest a model that would have been from the C-Record era? Campy Omega is very promising (but oh boy, that long wait for NOS ones, and then to find that they're 32h...). Thanks for your ideas. -

This is the way to go, period. Omegas are the top-end rim, much lighter than the other Greek-lettered rims, and I honestly see way more 32s than 36s around. Just get a wheelset with a decent brake track used. I had a half dozen leads on 32s when I needed 36s - eventually I gave up and went with silver Open Pros instead for my silver de rosa. -

The guy that I bought the wheelset from had to have the rims shipped from London from some shop. -

these aren't the prettiest, but a Gun bluinf touchup pen would do wonders

Campy Omegas are nice with C Record hubs. I have them on my G. Motta , they are semi aero rims.
And yes clinchers ( I normally don't ride clinchers).
I also have the tubular version with C Records also on my Panasonic.
S/F,
CEYA! -

Can't go wrong with Omegas, I must have had a half dozen different wheel combinations (all Dura Ace variants) 32 and 28 hole for road racing, never had an issue with the hoops, did split a rear hub once. -

Owning these hubs is frustrating.
They're beckoning me to use them, but lacing them to some nice rims isn't even half the problem.
I need a worthy frame!
(previously I have used them on a Bianchi track bike - sold - and then for a long time on a Peugeot PY10/M (1988, 531 Pro), fixed with brakes - amazing bike, destroyed by cab!)
Cinelli maybe... -

It's alive!!!
I asssume you've figured this out already, but the "7 point" bolt on hubs you posted in the first post:
are Euclid MTB hubs.

They were technically, But I found a beautiful Atala Professional with a matched pair, as well as the one I bought as a single with a track axle. -

Nice! The Euclid's were available with a solid axle. -

there is a good section in VeloBase. I suspect' like some other Campy lines that didn't take off that they were "recycled".
