I've considered the version with the cable adjuster as well. So these came in a box labeled "Synchro II"? The 1992 catalogue available on TuttoCampyBici.com doesn't make mention of the 'Synchro' trademark.

So is that what Wino Ryder has, or is his a different animal?

I think I'll leave the adventure for another day, luker. I was hoping for a budget alternative to ergos, but it looks as if a project like this could end up costing more in the long run. It'll have to be friction for the time being. What a foolish thought: Campy on a budget!
