Cyclo Benelux Tourist (Type A)

Cyclo Benelux Tourist (Type A) derailleur main image


This is a very beautiful, and rather rare, example of a Type A Cyclo Benelux Tourist, with its chainstay mount. It is a 4-speed 1/8" version.

In some of the photos, I have disengaged the pulley cage spring to allow the derailleur to adopt a more normal position.
