Okay you're a saddo.
Frankly old part work just as effective as modern part, an old Simplex LJ derailleur work effortlessly well (especially paired with a malliard 5 speeds block and TA crankset).
You shouldn't dismissed old component quite readily, there are some absolute shite, but amongst them, there are some gems that still rival modern stuff, like Mafac brakes for instance.
Thank for standing up to me Skully though.
