Glad you are doing well!

I had one of those RDs on a 79/80 Raleigh "Gran Sport" (go figure!). The whole bike was a Campy Nouvo Gran Sport gruppo. I really like the NGS shifters with the thumb wheel tension nuts.

They didn't call it bike jewelry for nothing; and that was before the gold plating!

What other 'bike jewelry' comes to your mind in terms of derailleurs?
