The turning point for rear derailleur technology: in 1950, the debut of the first-ever parallelogram rear derailleur, the Gran Sport 1012.

 

Innovation at Campagnolo headquarters bore the name of Gran Sport, the utmost expression of cycling technology in those days.

Its final version released in 1951 was further improved and provided with a single cable and return spring.

Even simpler, even faster.It was perfect, and destined to become a success.

The modern rear derailleur was born.

Who was the lucky Sod that got the Bianchi, Deltas and the other goodies?

 

Come on, own up!

Eish, I offered to help him with the Deltas. I would love a pair to call ' my precious'. Someone in Jhb probably got the treasure.

Sorry it was me. Not sure of my intentions just yet but will let you guys know in a few days.
