Was there a Duopar front derailleur? If not, what did Huret typically pair with it?

Amir, I love the Suntour Cyclone GT you can run 16T difference on the front clangers and 18T on the rear block but I wouldn't go bigger than a 32T on the back. Huret Duopar is a good bet as well Tony use to ride these. Best wishes Mick B Hunts. UK.
