Suntour stem shifters are just so cool!
I've got a set of those shifters in my "just in case" stash. I don't really like the shifters- I'd try to swap on some version of ratcheting power shifters. I played with it for a while before sticking it in the box... I think my idea was to use the old style Power shifters that are came clamped on to "inexpensive" bikes.
