Tioga disc drive.

I had some Campy Sthenos, light, interesting shape with concave sidewalls that made setting up brakes a pleasant challenge. My Hydrostops wore trenches in them, though ;-)

Mavic 261s were nice too, for bigger dudes or hopping on picnic tables.

Mm, I had 261s despite being built like a rake and mostly just sitting on picnic tables 
There was a 281 as well, not sure I ever actually saw one of those though. They all had annoyingly shallow braking surfaces, quite hard to keep your pads on them.
I'm still (occasionally) using a 26h 117, that was a stout bit of kit.
