Hi all.
I am in the middle of refurbishing a touring bike from the late 70s (1979) but my rear derailleur main spring is very weak. The chain does not wrap properly arround the free wheel and jump if you put pressure on the cranks.
If it could be shimano 600 to match the front derailleur that would be great, but I am not too fussy about that, I would just love to fond something consistant with the style of the bike, cheap (£10 max), and that have still strong springs to hold the mechanic...
Here is how it looks like:
Also, sorry to be a pain but I would prefer to buy it from someone in London so we can meet in person at some forum drinks, I can't be asked to go thru something with postage involved...
Thanks!
Loic
