‘Campione’ derailleur gear
Look for these sensational features—unique to the ‘Campione’.
★ Lightest in the world. The first gear to be constructed of 90% plastic enabling the weight of the mechanism to be reduced to only 4 ozs—half the weight of any other gear.
★ Strongest in the world. With the complete parallelogram and both side plates constructed in the wonder plastic—polypropylene, the ‘Campione’ mechanism will withstand more rough usage than any other gear.
★ Fastest change in the world. The shorter arm and improved wrap-round gives a faster change over a full range of 2 to 6 speeds with less control lever movement required.
★ Most economical in the world. Due to the fact that the ‘Campione’ is assembled with far less parts than any other gear it can obviously be serviced not only cheaper but easier than any other.

★ Neatest looking in the world. No other gear can compare with the ‘Campione’ for attractive and neat appearance—its design makes for good looks with less liability to damage.
★ The cheapest in the world. Due to the unique ‘Campione’ design there is a saving in the cost of materials which, coupled with the fact that no highly paid professionals are employed to publicise this article, means that for the first time it is possible to buy the best gear at the cheapest price.
The complete gear with lever and cables costs only … … … … 29/6
