Campagnolo Nuovo Record Rear Derailleur: Red Bullseye Pulleys - No Patent ~1985-1987 (NEAR MINT++ LOW MILES)

Exceptionally clean late model v5 Nuovo Record RD with genuine Bullseye jockey wheels!  This one lacks a patent date all together, which was found occasionally on late 1980's derailleurs.  The 1985 models typically showed Pat 11, consistent with the date codes used on C-Record.  Speculation is the no patent models were 1986 and 1987.  This derailleur has features consistent with 85-87.  These include hollow pins present since V4 1982, and more substantially the spring fixing pivot has been changed to fixing on a pin (to save weight and look sleeker)

Condition:

Show worthy near mint barely used shape!  It is extremely clean, and passes for NOS from a couple feet away.  Up close you will be surprised to notice just a few blemishes (that look worse in photos than in real life). 1) small scrapes to knuckles, 2) scratches on side of lower pivot bolt casing, 3) a few scrapes on cage plates.  The faceplate is pristine aside from a little scrape on it's far left side.  Bullseye jockey wheels are barely used.  Overall this derailleur will look NOS in your hands until you get real close to it with your eyes.

Details:

• No patent marking
• Short cage
• Model: 1020/A
