Was this part of the Campy setup for the SCs?
Not necessarily. Volumes of Cinelli frames was about 300/year. There was no "set" bike. I think most shipped as frames for shops to build them as seen fit. Viktor Kapitinov won Olympic road race gold in 1960 on a Model B with with Campagnolo. But as a general rule of thumb, shops built the "best" frames with the "best" stuff and the lower tier frames with lower tier stuff. Hence the rod FD on this bike was pretty much obsolete by 1958.
