Vintage Simplex Front Derailleur Double Chainring Peugeot Gitane DV11

The Simplex DV11 front derailleur solves a specific inventory code in the workshop: a double-chainring unit built from steel and plastic, with no oxidation noted. The DV11 reference ties it to the French component era that Peugeot and Gitane restorers frequently search for. What you see in the photos is what you get — the pictures serve as part of this listing's condition report.

Period-correct shifting for double chainrings

This is a front derailleur, not a rear unit. It is intended for a double chainring setup. The manufacturer part number is logged as 0000, and the country of origin is France. No oxidation was recorded during inspection. The combination of steel and plastic reflects the mixed-material approach common in French derailleur production of that period.

Key specifications

This listing carries the internal location code DV11 as a stock management reference. For those building a complete French drivetrain, a matching Simplex rear derailleur is available separately. The full derailleur category also holds related French and Italian components for mixed-era builds.

A compatible Simplex gear shifter can complete the cockpit on a restoration where period consistency matters. The condition notes in this listing are straightforward: no oxidation. The photos document the actual surface state and should be reviewed as part of the description, not as a separate gallery.
