Just one year after introducing their first parallelogram derailleur (the Suntour Skitter (1st style), SunTour introduce their third model the SunTour New Skitter, brining their revolutionary slant parallelogram design to a new lower price point. In the 1960s SunTour seemed to have an ability to innovate and bring new designs to market with a speed that left the European ‘giants’ of the derailleur world eating dust.

It is possible that the text indicates that these derailleurs can either handle a 28 tooth sprocket or that they have a total capacity of 28 teeth.
