69 and a life around bikes. I've been a racer and bicycle mechanic. I started using these a decade ago whenever I needed a new derailleur. These work great, a smooth shift and a light little clunk when it finds the new cog. Is it Campy Nuovo Record? I couldn't tell from the shift alone. Doesn't weigh any more. Never been disappointed by these. And the small cage goes up to 28t I believe.

I put this on an old steel frame I am building to suit my size and cycling style. I am out for exercise, not long distances or sprints. The steel frame (an old low end mass produced bike) did not have a derailleur hanger and I was using a new style derailleur that requited an adapter. The newer style worked but I was concerned that using the adapter would not be strong enough for long term use and it was another item to inspect for proper fit and torque. I am a 200 lb man and I just didn't want the system to fail while I was standing and clipped in. This derailleur eliminated the need for the adapter, it slipped into the rear dropout, was attached securely and it changes gears effortlesssly. Some times newer is not always better, such is the case with this deraulleur. I am using it on a 5 speed free wheel.Read full review

Used it on older Huffy MTB 12 speed. Fit right on and works as good as I hoped. I switch to a friction snifter so I can trim as needed. It seem good so far. Shipping was great.

Small-wheel folding bikes usually require short cage derailleur for ground clearance. This particular derailleur allows for that clearance. I have used this on several repair/rebuild jobs and have been satisfied every time. Highly recommended for its low cost and high availability.

I had a lot of trouble trying to find this, but it was what I needed. Nothing complicated or fancy. It just replaces the one that originally came on the bike and worked.
