Simplex Retrofriction Downtube Shifters
The best friction shifters ever made. Used in excellent
condition. No rust or scrapes/gouges. These have small
springs inside them that load up when you push the lever
down. Then when you pull them back against the derailleur
tension, the spring helps out. These have a very light
precise action.
Here is what you get:
Two (yes: 2) right hand shifters and one left hand shifter.
One of the right hand shifters is imprinted "Simplex"; the
others have no markings. You also get a new spare left and a
spare right spring. I don't know why I had spare springs: I
have never heard of these breaking or wearing out. All the
stainless steel washers are included - I checked the parts
inventory on these very carefully. Not included are bolts to
hold these onto the shifter bosses. The originals were cheap
zinc-plated units that I threw away. You can fit these
shifters with standard bolts available at any hardware store
or any bike shop (same as for attaching water bottle cages).
Treat yourself to stainless steel or titanium bolts. You
also get 2 used shifter cables.
