Thanks Sven. Nice looking Pug you got there from what the pic shows

That Rear Derailleur is exactly the one I'm talking about. So your experience is that the shifts aren't terribly crisp with the Sachs? I see you've got the Short Cage model which I expect would be the more crisp shifting of the models.
Do you attribute that directly to the derailleur or do you think the Cassette and shifters were more to blame?
