The cheapest Rally derailleurs on Ebay are close to what I paid for the bike, I may change my tune later but I think the SunTour option will suit me just fine for awhile.

I think you are probably right--the Rigida rims that are on it aren't listed in the literature as an option--the Campy hubs are there but I suspect they were re-laced onto the tubular rims.

Agreed--I like the two bottle option on the mount just not the color. I'm going to put black tape on the bars so it might blend better than I think, I just naturally gravitate toward the shiny parts!
