Couldn't find that RD on Disraeli Gears, either.
Anyone know anything about the cable pull on these? I seem to recall it was different to the Campy ones.
I own a set of early Sachs New Success Brifters, I've read all sorts of conflicting reports about compatibility. I haven't extensively experimented because Lazy.
