Triomphe or Victory RD
Help me out please! I can't tell the difference and I'm wanting to replace Triomphe RD with Victory on one of my bikes. Is this Victory?

Also if this is first generation, would it have a superior working design to my Triomphe derailleur, or did that come later?

Ridiculous. I spent less then $20 for the one example I did buy (rather then trade). Those that I DID trade for, I hardly traded more then $25-30 worth in items for 'em. Look around for one that isn't called Victory in the title, or put your feelers out for something locally.

Not only that the high bidder was prepared to go higher as he bid up his final bid.

yea i was prepared to bid as high as $35 maybe even $40.
when i got home from work the bidding was at like $65, i was a bit puzzled.
oh well, there's some more up right now, but it looks like they're missing 2 critical pieces

Once I receive my Billato Brothers Lemond bike, I'll take a closeup of the rear derailleur and post it so that I can know once and for all whether it is Triomphe or Victory. If it's Triomphe, I'm definitely going to upgrade to Victory. Thanks for the info!
