ICS must have had a couple of importers because I remember Dohnnie Einhorn of Amber Cycles in Fort Lauderdale also brought in some ICS parts (as well as Paletti and Somec and Assos and...lots of other cool stuff).
BTW, the one ICS part that I have used are the Super Record shifters. Besides being either chromed or gold plated, they are curved and have a super comfy leather insert that resembles rubber in its cushiness. I can say that these are no mere gilded lillies - they are much more comfortable and fit the hand much better, than standard SR shifters.
