Eric- I just looked at a Suntour pamphlet I got in Japan in late 81. Its written in Japanese, so I can't help you ouit a whole lot, but from the photos, this is what I am able to make out. No long cage Superbe was offered. Yes, the Cyclone & Cyclone GT used the same rear derailleur body. It would also appear that the long cage from a Cyclone be easily fitted to a Superbe body.

Did the 1st generation Suntour Superbe rear derailleur ever come in a
long cage version like the Cyclone GT?
If yes, anyone have a nice one for sale?
If no, then my questions are:
Did the 1st generation Cyclone v.s. Cyclone GT use the same rear derailleur
body but just a different length cage?
If the cage was the only difference, could the long cage from a Cyclone be
easily fit to a Superbe with postive results?
Thanks in advance,
