OK after searching the archives and and the web I've found little information on this rear deraileur except it was released around '75. After fixing my aforementioned fixed gear I sat down with a little homebrew and started overhauling a Rally rear deraileur. Looking at it and thinking about Campagnolo's deraileurs I've got to say this one was before it's time with a sprung upper pivot, stiffened steel rear section, an really wide range. This is a really dynomite deraileur, so my question is why is so little information about it out there? Is it because of the later "Rally" POS deraileur? What's the story of these early Rallys, and are they actually worth anything on the market these days?

Enjoy, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives
