So, I'm just wandering around the floor, eyes averted from the glorious bikes to better see what's under the tables, when someone, out of the blue, walks up and just gives me a pair of NOS (?) Shimano L422 DT shifters. At first, they look a bit clunky-thick at the base, and feel a bit stiff. But wait, these are Genuine ratcheting shifters, like the Suntour PowerShift, but much prettier.
So, whoever you are, thank you very much, they are lovely and a welcome addition to my collection, which includes the esoteric, the rare, and the funky. I call it eclectic rather than random.
