Does anyone know where I can find suitable replacements? (They don't have to be Campy. Whatever works will be fine. 10-tooth.)

Thanks.

I have used shimano pulleys with great success.

Thanks, guys.

Are all of these the same, or do I need to look for anything special as far as 10sp vs 9sp vs...?

I'll be running a 3/32" 6/7/8sp chain.

I'd use the basic entry level TY-XXX pullys. They're just as good as the OEM style Campys and only run about $5 per pair.

A possible drawback to the high end Shimano is the upper 'G' pully which is designed to slide side to side. This characterisitc was to help optimize indexed shifting.

IIRC Bradley at American Cyclery in SF, CA was offering some reproduction pulleys he has made in Asia (maybe Taiwan) at a "reasonable " price (meaning not as outrageous as what authentic Campys would cost). Give him a shout if you strike out on the other possibilities:

IIRC, Somafab.com sells replacement jockey wheels for vintage Campy derailluers.
