Campagnolo has launched www.anniversary.campagnolo.com dedicated to the 80th anniversary gruppo. Now it only shows a countdown timer with some 8 days to go.
Anniversary units are expected to begin shipping in March; pricing has yet to be announced (you know it will be expensive).
Not to be overlooked: two 80th anniversary wheelsets. A 1,310g carbon wheelset and a 1,590g carbon/aluminum wheelset. Both featuring 50mm tall aero rims with G3 spoke pattern.

Buon compleanno Campagnolo!!! Larry wonders why they chose 80 years to do this instead of 75? But with Il Giro finishing in Vicenza this year, an 80th birthday celebration sounds wonderful, especially since we'll be there. Now all we need to do is get invited to the party!
