Picture of the great Austrian cyclist Adolph Christian (TdF podium finisher in the late 1950s) riding an earlier Sieger, which has the old Capo brand derailleurs, which resemble the Simplex Competition "suicide" shift in front and the Simplex Tour de France rear. As a fan of Capo frames and their beautiful lugwork, it pains me to say that the Capo hubs and derailleurs were quite crude-looking, almost like the stuff we see from Russia or other eastern European countries in the 1960s.
