Those French derailleurs are junk. Downright dangerous, in fact. I'd be more than happy to make the world a safer place by swapping you for some Shimanos

I think that you earned some of that karma by helping me out...

The Duopar shifts nicely on the stand, even with a dry chain.
They're great derailleurs, I'd expect nothing less.

Great bike - I could see the Missus using it for town rides, if it does manage to hang around.

How did your test ride go last weekend?

The test ride went well. Sometimes it is the bike

I just talked to the guy who dropped the bike off. I asked him where he got it. He was at the scrap yard dumping metal, this was next in line to be crushed.
