Hi Andrew,
The only picture I have is in my No.13 Catalogue. I can tell you there are at
least two versions: the early one has a threaded cable adjuster and the
famous "open C and G" on the back side of the inner cage (facing the spokes).
These were made from 1952 to about 1955. 1956 was the year the open C was
dropped from the Gran Sport inner, so I'm presuming a similar change in the
Sport. The later version has no cable adjuster, no open C on the back, and
more importantly, the jockey wheel is different from the Gran Sport jockey
wheel. The earlier version carries the same jockey wheel common to all the
Gran Sports from 1953 on, but the bearings and adjustment pieces are
different on the later one.
Which one do you have?
