Campagnolo. MTB or Road Mech?

[ferrus]

If you look at the left side ‘nuckle’ (the bit that includes the hanger bolt and cable entry/adjuster), it‘s more sleekly shaped on Icarus than any other Campag MTB mech apart from Record OR.

It’s really frustrating that nearly everyone gets this wrong. Almost every single ‘Icarus’ shown on a google search is actually a Euclid or Centaur!

To try and show a comparison of the part I’m referring to…
Here’s a Centaur. Notice the square shaping of the rear nuckle. Euclid and Olympus are the same; it’s less refined than Icarus:
