As we say on C&V, "Pictures or it didn't happen!" So here are photos of the New Success RD's (both medium cage here on my triples) on my two current bikes. I'd show the brifters, too, but they look just like any pointy-hooded Campy Ergo brifters.





There was a recent thread in which @El Chapo, as I recall, described New Success as being comparable in quality to Dura-Ace, and between Record and Chorus in the Campy hierarchy. There was a period in the 90's when many high-end bikes came with Sachs New Success.

FWIW, I use Campy Racing T front derailleurs with these setups, having never been a gruppo purist. And one of the beauties with Ergo brifters is that they work fine with any FD, being essentially a friction shifter.
