I am gathering parts for a 1970 Falcon, just picked up the Nuovo Record derailer group from cudak888 so I am going to need a set of these. I will not be able to blast and paint for another month or so but if this is a good price I will pick them up.

Thanks,
Cory
This building a bike a part at a time is all new to me, a lot of work but fun at the same time.:thumb:

If and only IF Barry Scott will swear that the clips are of the chromed steel versions and not the later stainless style then yes. I have been lied to many times, no one seems to have a magnet to check...
If they are the later stainless type (approx. 1978 onwards) which function better but are not correct for a 1970 bike, then NO.

I suspect they are the stainless type, Barry does not sell much for cheap. In fact his prices are Meet and Exceed New York prices. I consider his stuff IF you HAVE to Have it Right NOW, or are tired of waiting, Maybe, but his prices are TIP TOP OF THE MARKET.
