Cool!
I'm putting the Suntour ProCompe 14-24 on tomorrow. I have a DuraAce 14-22 on it right now. After I get a chance to look over the gear ratios, I'll buy something put together that's a bit better. I've been looking over the freewheel offerings on ebay.
Regarding wider range derailleurs, I have a Suntour Cyclone and a Suntour LaPreel here at home. I still have the Shimano DEORE XT, too. The Nuovo Record is on the bike and unless it breaks it's staying - probably for the rest of my lifetime.
Thanks for all the help, guys.
