Folks,
I'm wondering, does anyone know of a long cage "rapid rise" rear derailleur that existed in the late 70's, early 80's?
That is to say, a rear derailleur where pulling cable shifts you to a smaller cog on the freewheel?
With my bar end shifters I've come to like the concept of pressing down to shift down to a lower gear. "Downshift" I say as my wobbly legs struggle up the ubiquitous hills here. A rapid rise rear derailleur lets me accomplish this.
Thanks,
