    Very interesting - I don't think I've ever seen those, even attached to a bicycle.

    It's drilled for the Portacatena but were they really casting plug drop outs then? Do you know who used them? I've never seen them on a bike.

    No - I doubt anyone used them. C made a lot of stuff that never made it into anyone's manufacture atmo. There were long ones too earlier that decade.

    Recently? Surely they wouldn't have sold for that back then. A top end bike back in the 70's
    sold for $500 -$600.
