Subject: [CR]Cirque: Shimano L422 DT shifters

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.
