Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Question about Campagnolo indexed bar end TT shifters

A local seller has a pair of never-used Campy bar end shifters listed for a fair price and I'm interested. He firmly believes that they are 8 speed, but there are 10 full clicks when you run through the R shifter up/down..... Would that mean that these shifters will work for 8, 9 or 10 speed?

I dont have a spare rear derailleur to hook them up to right now, and am stumped on why there would be 10 full clicks on an 8 spd set??

Dont know if it matters, but only the R-side one has clicks, the matching L shifter is smooth/friction/no clicks

I'm used to vintage friction barcon's on my other roadie, so this is all Greek to me.....

10 clicks would seem to indicate 11 speed... Otherwise, i have no idea...
