I've been wanting to ask about this so called LJ4000?

Anyway it apears to be a LJ4000? But it apears to have been a special production model? Here's how it differs from the badged LJ4000

1, Factory drilled derailleur pulleys.

2, Pulley bolts are alloy as like the normal model but the head has been milled and drilled through.

3, Outer face plate, 2 inner milled circles. One has a nylon insert for the spring to glide on as like the badged model. Plate is also thinner.

4, Inner plate is drilled ( Milled! ) clear through and is thinner as well as like MAVIC. Limit screw stop are drilled as well.

5, Limit screws, alloy.

6, Cable clamping washer, alloy.

7, Cable clamping steel bolt ( Head ), milled.

8, Spring loaded upper steel plate with stop is drilled as well, normal model is with the normal 2 spring hole arrangement. this one has 8 other holes!!

OK!....................So what is it??................Model, year?..............Any ideas!
