171 Source - 3fer - Buy for screws that fit top tube cable clips? Campy very early chainstay cable clip for full housing run

$8.95
Qty:

 

A nifty item - you get 3 Campagnolo part number 170 chainstay cable clip.  It's very rare to need this clip - it's only for bikes where housing is run all the way from shifter to rear derailleur.  This was done long ago, mostly in the early 1950's.  The chainstay clip itself is small diameter for mounting close to the rear derailleur where the chainstay is narrow.  A bike only needs one of these - so why three?

 

Well, as best as we can tell the screw for the clip (you get 3 when you buy this item, one for each clip) is the same as Campy part 171 which is the screw for a top tube cable clip. Later top tube clip sets had what looks to be a stainless screw.  The earlier 171's which are proper for most 70's bikes were duller and often get oxidized.  So getting the set of 3 here in fresh NOS condition is a great find!
