Overall Product Rating 4.5 / 5
Well engineered and good looking

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.

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.

Can the right lever pull enough cable for a Shimano Ten Speed System

Thank you for your enquiry, yes they will be fine on 10spd

Will these fit on a 1961 Hetchins.
By

It has fairly standard looking bosses but in addition (on each side) has extra thin and short rods that seem to interfere with a standard lever attachment. They are like strong wire that look like they should be used to hold a housing in place. Does this lever attach to a standard Campag boss.
We cannot confirm this for certain I'm afraid. They fit standard down tube bosses- im unaware that Camganolo has a specific design only for their shifters.

Thanks! 13.01.21

Can these be used with Jteks thumb shifter holders?

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
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.
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
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 ?
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?
Hi,

This is just the standard version with equal sized barrels.

Thanks.

Will These Work With An Campag Athena 11 Speed Set?
By
29 Apr 2016
Would like to mate these with a silver Athena 11 speed drive train on a Retro I am building.
Hi,

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

Thanks.
