There are four interesting aspects to this wordy advert:
- It introduces a new derailleur called the Vittoria Grand Champion.
- It is still claiming Vittoria is the company of the Nieddu brothers, even though Tommaso Nieddu had defected to Cervino.
- It refers to the remaining brother, Amadeo Nieddu, as a 'Cavaliere Ufficiale'. This is some kind of honorary title that is well beyond my comprehension but is presumably a dig at Tommaso.
- It appeared in the same edition of Route et Piste as an advert for Cervino.
In Torino, revenge may be a dish best served a mutitude of times at a whole slew of different temperatures!
