Dirty work done, now for the good part

[Tobias Rodriguez]

My Shimano Crane rear derailleur is ready for the rebuild. It was bought on good old eBay many months ago for cheap. It was filthy but cleaned up nicely enough for me. I had a silver donor to use all of the hardware, cage and jockey wheels from, I wanted to add these to the black body to very nearly complete my black Dura Ace/Crane group set.

Nice acquisition.

Long cages seem to be a sign of the times.
Vintage and modern.
