Yes! TriVelox was a great innovator, with early freehub/cassette combinations and other neato stuff. Their Model A derailleur involved a sliding three cog cassette that kept a perfect chainline in all gears. This is a Model B derailleur that worked with a cassette on a free hub and an indexed quadrant type shifter on the top tube. I don't have any of that stuff, just this steampunk derailleur.

An almost NOS 1972 Schwinn Paramount P13-9. AND the very best packaging job I have ever seen! two boxes, one with the wheels and the other with the bike.

Right now, not a thing. It was an impulse buy and there is no bike for it. But when the time comes, a little grinding paste, sacrificial cup and balls and a drill press ought to do the trick.

NOS Sampson Stratics pedals and cleats for one of my rides. Gotta love nationwide parts searches.

Thanks. I'm going single on the Independet build and took you advice on the Eno route. Now, I just need a set of wheels with ENO hubs.
You can't pass up on cheap NOS, especially the Regal Saddles.

I am constantly amazed by what I find.
Perhaps that Merckx Motorola Leader is sitting there again for $350 this year.

Thanks!
I'm actually looking for a great deal on a used Niner Jet 9 Carbon in a step 3 or step 4 trim.
If I can't find a used one, there is a close out on these at the shop I frequent.
We are heading back out to Moab again this year and I really want a true cross country rig.
The terrain out there is crazy tough on my back and I want to ride full squishy this time.
