WTB: Huret Challenger I
Got a project that I want to be a little different. Looking for Huret Challenger I derailleur set. Front, rear derailleurs and DT shifters. Bonus if the RD has a claw.

Hello Lynn,
The forum has several members who own the Raleigh Super Course Mk. II who have reworked their drive trains.
They should have exactly what you seek snoozing in the parts bins.
Should you have difficulty in locating the ensemble purchasing one of the bikes to get it might be an option in the future...
Shall look forward to seeing the project!

Hey Lynn, any interest in using a fresh DuoPar group w/period-correct drilled Nervar crankset? I've been waffling about whether to put this on my PX-10 frameset, but I'm offloading a lot of my nicer stuff due to life situations right now. Stable is already at half the size it was 4 months ago, as crazy as that is to me.
You either love or hate DuoPar, some covet, some slander it, I personally love it! I was preparing to list this @ $180 shipped OBO. I'd obviously cut a deal for a fellow French fanatic, especially someone I've had great interaction with on BF, toss me an offer if you're interested.
Note: This is totally uncleaned, I haven't so much as lifted a finger to clean it, it's just that nice. PS - these are circa 1980 or 81. Ca't find date code. Crank is ISO/BSA.

I have the rear derailleur. Still looking for front and appropriate shift levers.

But hey, look! Huret retrofrictions! And a single Simplex barcon!! Now I need to find an exploded parts diagram to see if I actually have all the parts for the retrofrictions...

PS - I have a veritable CRAPTON of Eco stuff across several iterations/eras. But I don't think that's in the age range you're hunting either.
