1950s Simplex TdF Derailleur, Shifters, Huret FD.
This is from a project I have decided to scuttle. Simplex TdF 5 speed rear derailleur, Huret front derailleur, and double Simplex shifter. The rear derailleur was NOS, but has been mounted and used on the stand. The 5 speed version is a bit harder to find than the four and three speed models. The other two items are not new. The Huret front derailleur has some cosmetic issues, but functions and presents well. The shifter shows patina/wear. Note the levers are Simplex, but the band is Huret.
FWIW, the system shifted well. I was rather surprised.
SOLD
I will consider a reasonable offer to break up the combo.
