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.
