grrg I think you'll enjoy browsing the disraeli gears site. The pictures and history are interesting, and the text is humorous.
So after a few hours of cleaning and replacing cables, I’m ready to swap out the derailleur. It looks like I can just remove the bracket (with 4532 stamped on it) and mount it? I noticed that the existing Campy one has a spring and the VGT doesn’t appear to. Is it missing something?

Also found a set of old Rigida wheels so eventually I’ll be able to actually ride it…
