Re: Quest shifters

Thanks for the recommendation for these great gizmos.
St John St Cycles in the UK stock a similar item but without the  
barrel adjusters - which seems to be an essential part. Yes, if you  
buy a set of Shimano barcons you get the barrel adjusters included,  
but I don't remember whether they came with the cheaper and nicer all- 
metal Dura Ace 7700 braze-on levers.
So I've got a pair of the Paul thumbies on order.
I was going to order from Harris Cyclery, having benefitted from late,  
great Sheldon Brown's help over the years until I found their $100  
minimum order requirement.
Oh well, Com Cycle USA came up with the best price including shipping  
to Europe.
