Many surviving British and French entry-level 10-speeds from the early 70s are found with SunTour rear derailleurs that have replaced a long-gone Simplex Prestige. In the part of Virginia where I started cycling the V-GT Luxe was the standard replacement mech. They just work and they were cheap at the time!
