I have found that the older Nuovo Records have no trouble handling a nicer vintage 14-28 5speed or comapct 6, like the Reginas, Atoms, and Suntours that where vintage to the DR. But they struggle often don't quit pull off modern 6/7 14-28's. Nothing agaisnt these as DR's they handled the top end freeweels from when they where made rather nicely 12 up to 28 somtimes 30, which was all they where every made to do.
