... in fact, I'm a bit of a collector. I have SunTours in small, medium, and large:



The short cage I purchased new in 1987, which is why it shows a bit more patina than the others. The (NOS) GT I purchased from a fellow BF member just a couple of months ago. And the Le Tech, while technically not a Cyclone, bears an obvious family resemblance.

I have successfully used the short cage with a 30t large cog, so it tempts me. The GT is the obvious candidate. But the Le Tech is oh so quirky, which seems to suit this build (who uses a mixte for offroad?). Hmmmm...

I'm rambling now, but at any rate, I'm going to give the Arabesque a few more weeks to grow on me.
