New member. Just cleaning up my GJ that I bought in'76 or maybe '75. Looking for any info about those years. Mostly it is all original or I have the parts. I have two Grand Jubilee detailers, one short cage and one long cage. I have the Maillard hubs but ditched the rims eons ago. Any idea what rims came on that model? 36 hole hubs.
The derailleur is a Jubilee, not a Grand Jubilee.
The rims were Weinmann alloy 27". Not the earlier "dimpled" or the later "concave" -- you're looking for a fairly plain looking box-shaped rim, flat across the spoke holes face. I think they said Made in Belgium on them.
You may find some useful info in this here stash of catalogs:

Servicing instructions for jubilee rd and fd
Hello everyone,
i have looked high and low and can not find instructions on how to service jubilee fd and rd. Can someone help direct me? Recently acquired '73 competition and '74 Super tourer and want to do right by these much loved little pieces of mechanical history. I plan to start thread soon to share and ask for other related advice.
many thanks, Steve

The drillium was offered on the second version of the Jubilee, I.e., factory created. The parallelogram spring was also made more robust than the first version. I have never seen a drillium long cage, though.
