Overall Product Rating 4.5 / 5

Well engineered and good looking

By Stuart Smith

5 / 5

I recommend this product

Look good and work well. I was unsure at first about the mounting plates, which didn't seem as though they would cover the bosses, but in fact they look great.

Very Smooth Action.

ConsNo disassembly

ProsSmooth

These allow for very good control and don't come unstuck (they don't suddenly lose the friction part of friction shifting). Very pleasant to use with an old school setup.

SJS Customer Service:

Hi there,

They should be suitable, we have not directly tested those so there may be some slight compatibility issues.

Thanks.

How Much Cable Pull?

By Simon Cahill

27 Jun 2017

How much cable will this shifter pull. I need 38mm for a Shimano Deore XT long cage, I'm not bothered about whether the indexing matches (although it would be interesting to know) so long as there is enough cable pull in friction mode.

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

These shifters are friction only so they don't have an indexed setting anyway but they will pull sufficient cable for use with a Deore XT rear derailleur.

Thanks.

Can I Use With Origin8 Down Tube Shift Adapter - 28.6-31.8Mm

By Simon

09 Jun 2017

I have a 28.6mm steel frame without braze-on fittings. Will the Origin 8 fitting work with the Dia-Compe friction shifters ?

SJS Customer Service:

Hello,

We believe they will work.

Thanks.

Are these shifters the ones that come with the bigger right side barrel to accomodate 50mm cable pull?

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

This is just the standard version with equal sized barrels.

Thanks.

Will These Work With An Campag Athena 11 Speed Set?

By Graham

29 Apr 2016

Would like to mate these with a silver Athena 11 speed drive train on a Retro I am building.

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

As these shifters are friction they should be absolutely fine for use with your Campagnolo 11spd group set.

Thanks.
