Making a bike up and have a Duopar for the rear, have to decide (and probably get, most of the Huret fronts in the bins are ugly) a match for the front.

The "Success" is probably the closest in appearance to the Jubilee and less delicate, but any of them are decent performers.

I have a Success sharing my Trek with a Duopar. It’s the best wide range 46/30 I have, and the Duopar handles a 13/32 very well!.
