My personal experience with the rear derailleurs (Prestige and Criterium) has been pretty good - and though I'm a big Suntour fan, I think Simplex performs quite well.
That being said, I think their Delrin FD's are POC's.
No, and I worked at a Peugeot/Raleigh shop. They do get sloppy after many miles, though.
It's funny that if you research Delrin, you'll find that one of its main uses today is pulleys.
