(More customer reviews)Ok, well seeing as how there are almost NO reviews for bike components, I will write one! I love these stem shifters. I rebuilt a hybrid Nishiki for a friend of mine and seeing as how the frame was too fat for downtube shifters without brazing, I opted for the old-style stem shifter setup instead. This never fails after proper adjustment, and SOLID clicks. For some, this might be a little difficult to push/pull the levers, but it gets easier over time. Just break it in a little! Absolutely no accidental shifts caused by small nudges. If you've got a need for a 7-speed shifter, give these a try. I don't think it's stated, but cabling is included, however, cable HOUSING is not. Unlike those "vintage" shifters, (I feel) there's no risk of bending or breaking the levers. They are pretty thick wedges that I much prefer to the flimsy feeling metal tabs that Sunrace was selling. Shift as rapidly and as hard as you want and these will get the job done quickly and accurately. (I was stuck between this and Sunrace for this price range, but now it's no contest after trying out both.)
For the price, no better alternative, unless you want to be a "vintage" purist.
