DISRAELI DOCUMENTS
Publisher: Shimano
Country: Japan
Date: December 1972
Derailleur brands: Shimano
Derailleurs: too numerous to mention - see individual pages
This catalogue for the 1973 model is very similar to the one for 1972, but with a few telling changes, including:
-
•The inclusion of the nascent Dura-Ace groupset (page 2 and page 3) including the Titlist front derailleur
-
•The weird aircraft-style ‘console’ gear levers have inexplicably changed from being double to being single (page 8 and page 11)
-
•The Tourney centre-pull brakes are joined by a side-pull version (page 19).
-
•The cable-operated disk brake is joined by a hydraulic version (page 20).
