The Chorus road mech from a year or two later appears to be exactly the same as a Record OR, apart from the short cage and script. When my Rec OR went wobbly I bought a Chorus and swapped over the cage ..after rubbing off the 'Chorus' script, you'd never know the difference.Giom6":yemunwoc said:dazzawazza":yemunwoc said:Is there any difference between Record O.R and the road derailleurs of the time?
I already have 2 medium cages and it looks like the cage can easily be transferred over to a road derailleur?
There must be some difference but not much I reckon.
I think you could do that but not sure how difficult it would be to do.
They're much cheaper and easier to find too, but you still have to have/find a long cage..
