Elizabeth, (way better half) is running one on her off topic Lemond Zurich. She agreed to the removal of its' STI RSX group and replacing with a 7 speed Suntour drivetrain. Sprint crank, Cyclone MKII derailleurs including an NOS 3 pulley model with pre-requisite bar-cons.
Shifts cleanly over a 12-23 ratio, as it should. A little noisier...the big cage needs to be kept perfectly aligned to the chainline. It would be interesting to see how it would shift an "alpine" range of gears. It does not have the spring action at the hanger that other gears have (Crane etc) but Suntour stuff always worked well.
The same model was also branded as an Arx and Lepree, as Pat noted.
