As far as the rear derailleur it was the stock Shimano Deore though its a longer mtb cage design. Shifter wise Its a Shimano rapidfire and it works perfectly.

I don't doubt thats a quality part but the extra teeth - 34 vs 32 in first make a world of difference. I've had no issues with this over the years, its super quiet and shifts well.
