Huret forkends were identical to Campagnolo fork ends.

Huret on left Simplex on right.



Simplex forkends had an "S" forged into them.





Campy forkend.



Most TdFs came with Simplex forkends. A few had Huret forkends. In 40 years I've only seen one Gitane Tour de France that had Campy forkends. It was a TdF NOT a SC

Super Corsas had Campy or Huret forkends but never Simplex forkends.
