It is hard to quantify, but these are precisely 27,000,000 times better than the plastic ones and work with both 6 and 7 speed. If you find some 7 speed ones they work with 6, 7, 8 speed. I think Shimano stopped making them because not enough people were buying replacements.
i have those shifters. i have 2 sets, now, actually. Very nice. I've found that the indexing in 7speed mode is kinda finicky, so i've been running friction. i might have another go at it someday soon.
these are much nicer than the tourney stuff out there now, although the tourneys are very nice for the price.
