Hi Richard. The Raleigh Competition came w/ the Jubilee derailleurs for 2 or 3 yrs starting in 1973; these frames had Huret dropouts. They then became Competition GS [Grand Sport] w/ Campy Nuovo Grand Sport derailleurs and Campy dropouts. As Vertyg [Chas. Colerich] noted the last of the 3 Jubilee ref. #s is for the Jubilees w/ a special tabbed washer allowing it to be used on a Campy style dropout. Verktyg thinks there was a [subtle?]cage difference [not shown in the drawings] between the 24 and 28 capacity [shortcage w/ a 36-53 front range]Jubilees. This makes sense and i'll check my stock to see if there are any differences in the ones i have. I can't say i've ever noticed any and assumed all the short cages were identical. The Jubilee long cage may have had the same dimensions as the Allvit and Luxe touring cages but those were steel and the Jubilee cage was alloy. I'll let you know if i find anything more out.

OFF LIST Hi, Billy, Ooops. I forgot to emphasize: I do not know if my short cage Jubilee is the short cage 24t or the short cage 28t because I don't know what the difference is. By process of elimination, I am assuming it is the short cage 24t because it is for Campag (24t as per cataloge spec (what is the Huret catalogue tag: "something" italiane or such). But who knows. I wonder if Jerry Moos Raleigh Competition has Huret or Campag drop-outs and if his Jubilee has the Campag mounting washers or the Huret mounting washers.

OFF LIST To: billydavid13@comcast.net Date: Friday, September 11, 2009, 9:55 PM Hi, Billy, Good to hear from you. Hope all is well. As per the on-line Huret catalogues I've seen within the past 8 hours, Jubilee short cage were listed for (rear sprocket max.) 24t and 28t AND Jubilee long cage were listed for (rear sprocket max.) 24t and 28t. The long cage accepted a smaller front inner ring than the short cage. The exploded part number views for the short cage show only one "set" of p/n's and do not cite any 24t vs 28t differences. Ditto for the long cage views. Puzzling. My Jubilee has no part numbers on it and, I cannot see any re-positioning hole permitting one to re-position something in some manner to change between 24t and 28t. See the Huret catalogues: http://www.velo-pages.com/main.php ps: From the catalogue views, it appears that the long cage Jubilee used the long cage from the Super Alvit but, I need to check the p/n's on the long cage. - RC All the best, Richard Cielec --- On Fri, 9/11/09, billydavid13@comcast.net <billydavid13@comcast.net> wrote: From: billydavid13@comcast.net <billydavid13@comcast.net> Subject: Re: [CR] More Huret Jubilee Mysteries - Can Anyone Solve ? To: "r cielec" <teaat4p@yahoo.com> Date: Friday, September 11, 2009, 9:30 PM Hi Richard. A number of people have spoken to the factors determining der. capacity. As Jerry Moos pointed out the Jubilees can easily exceed their "official" capacity. Just as the later Campy Rallys were essentially Nuovo Gran Sports w/ a longer cage, the Jubilee long cage had the identical body but a longer cage. There's no confusing the two. I'll send some pics tomorrow if you need 'em.

Ahoy ! As mentioned by several listers, Huret offered Jubilee rear ders - both short and long cage - in rear sprocket max. capacities of 24t and 28t. In the several on-line, exploded parts catalogue views I found, Huret does not cite different part numbers for either the 24t and the 28t versions; that is: one parts list for both capacity ders. So, does anyone know how to identify and distinguish the 24t Jubilee from the 28t Jubilee? (That is besides trial and error: If it rubs on the 28, it must be the 24). Thanks.
