Dura-Ace RD-7401 rear derailer - parts-built
This is a 7401 that appear to be nice and straight with some road rash, but not enough to detract from it for a rider-quality RD.
However, it has been piece-built, from the looks of it. The inner pulley cage, though functional, is not from a 7401, and the bolts are also not for a 7400 (the Allen head on the lower bolt is also stripped). Pulley wheels are also off a different RD; they're not branded Dura-Ace and don't carry the white stripe and RD-7400 part number embedded in them.
Pivots are nice and tight - no slop - and the return spring is tight and snappy. Pinch bolt and nut are upside-down in the pictures; this has been corrected.
$30 + $10 shipping in a Padded FRE. PP or MO.
