(I'm currently using a dreamy long-cage Suntour V GT Luxe, max wrap 36). I realize I could just get a Shimano Deore, but it would look so out of place on a classic bike, and I'd love to stick with something old, be it Suntour, Shimano, Campy, Simplex, whatever. Anyone know of any high-capacity classic derailers? Or, heck, even an old-style-looking one--just something that's fits, visually?
Campy gran Tourismo or Shimano Crane will work
