But, I was also wondering if you knew whether the derailleur tang on the LJs will have any issues when used on a Campy style dropout?
Thanks for any info.
If you're referring to the locator plate, I *think* it will work fine on a Campy hanger. The Simplex tang sits at about 1:00, in the nook where the hanger joins the dropout, so it should locate the derailleur roughly the same whether on a Campy or Simplex hanger.
