Item Condition

I grade products as honestly as possible and depict blemishes in both description and photos—please study them carefully. I tend to be overcritical and customers report items to be in better shape than expected often. From best condition to worst condition, my grading scale is as follows. Mint / near mint+ / near mint / excellent+ / excellent / great / very good / average / fair.

Description

Exceptionally clean example of Campagnolo's top level front mech from 1954 (the first year the world logo appeared on this derailleur) to 1957 when the Record model was released.  The first gen was from 1951 to 1953, with the winged wheel logo.  The Gran Sport FD was continued into the mid 1960's, and was removed somewhere before the #15 catalog in 1967.  This Gran Sport was chrome plated and had nicer castings and details compared to the similar but dull grey coated Valentine model.  Often called the matchbox or pushrod derailleur.  

Condition

Very close to mint, very lightly used condition! Perfect for your 1950's or 60's Campy L'Eroica restoration. Outer cage plate, shift arm, matchbox body and clamp piece are just about pristine.  Hardware looks nearly as clean as NOS bolts would with the slightest bits of wrench marks on a few!  Inner cage plate shows some chain rub.

I'm always buying high end bikes, parts, accessories, memorabilia, etc. While I'm particularly seeking large piles of new old stock parts, used items in nice condition are welcome.
