Mike, it is because it is a long cage and because it has that cool sticker on it. It is visible in he Rene Herse book, and probably the Toei book as well, as his bikes love to have the old stuff on it. I was tempted on bidding on it as well, as there is a project that needs that as well, well at least from the original build specs. It is a very nice derailleur that is not that common to find on Ebay. joel Philadelphia, PA http://www.bikeville.com

Four bidders from the land of the rising sun slugged it out and made some seller from Santa Rosa, CA a happy camper buy paying $210 for a Huret Success front derailleur. Auction number is 280076624124
What is so rare about this one? Long cage?, Was used as a roach clip by Paris Hilton?
