[half cog]

Also seen em in split cane.Seem to remember they were banned for track racing as people got hurt with large splinters when they broke up in a crash. You can however still buy them under the name Cerchio Ghisallo.Made by Antonio Cermenati at Magreglio in Italy.Was given a pair years ago. Have no clue what became of them.Was but a lad at the time and probably hung them on the bedroom wall.
