alt Hacker NewsI hope there's an exhibit on the first generation ten-speed dura ace group set, which was a legitimate jump ahead in capability and precision when it was introduced in 2004. Everything since then has been refining some of the same.

I think Shimano become famed with "self-centering" derailleur some 50 years ago?
Before that you had to watch gears all the time.
I remember tinkering with my Ukrainian gears to make them more loose in "Shimano style".

Apparently Dura Ace was introduced in 1973!
