The GT-200 was a long-cage version of the "Schwinn Approved" (Huret-built) derailleur used exclusively on the Super Sport from 1970 through mid-'73. It was replaced by the GT-210 on mid-'73 and '74 models. The GT-210 was an updated version with a patented "pusher-plate" cage design.
The GT-100 was the first Shimano-built derailleur used by Schwinn and was used mainly on 1970 to early '74 5-speed models with wide range (14-32T) freewheels such as the 5-speed Suburban, Collegiate, and Deluxe Twinn. It was also standard on the 10-speed World Traveler (first imported Schwinn), and was used to supplement shortages of the Huret-based Schwinn Approved derailleur on the '70 to early '74 Varsity and 10-speed Suburban. It was replaced in early '74 by the Shimano built GT-120, the latter of which was also used on '74 and later Sting-Rays.
Unfortunately that Disraeli Gears page is mistaken. The GT-200 was exclusively a long-cage derailleur, the short cage version had no numeric designation, it was simply called the "Schwinn Approved" model.
