NOS Cyclo Benelux Derailleurs and Shifters
I understand these were popular in the late 50s but I can't seem to find any information on current value. Any guesses what these might sell for in mint condition ?

I haven't the faintest idea, but my gut tells me that they'd sell for about $150-200 on the Bay. Have you tried Ebay UK for completed sale prices? Very, very cool items, but I think that the market is small. Do you know if they're 3, 4, or 5 speed? It would help a lot if they are 5.
Good luck!
Good luck!

I have a one of these on a 50's Lenton bike.
Mine is set up as a 4 cog rear, with a suicide
shifter on the front.
It's a project and I'll probably end up modifying it
with something that works better.
As stated previously, I think it's a pretty limited
market, because most of the bikes they came on
(at least here in the USofA) are either wall art
or gone to bicycle heaven.
E-bay gets a world wide market though, so i could
see where they might be just the thing someplace
where there are more bikes left that came with them
as original equipment.
I'm far from expert in the e-bay marketplace.
