Subject: [CR]Large cog rating for a Suntour Superbe Pro rear derailleur

Can anyone tell me how large a freewheel cog a Suntour Superbe Pro will handle comfortably? At that time the Super Records would handle 28, but with a little difficulty (I think the extra chain was the culprit, but my setups were never satisfactory with this combination). Was the Suntour a little more forgiving of such a large freewheel cog? I'd rather have a little less gearing than compromise the performance of the shifting.
