What's the deal with these guys. I assume that if they worked as well as the other
true Retrofriction (i.e. *not* simply ratcheting, like Suntour powershift) and could be adapted to downtube bosses they'd be all the rage. But they're not...
I was planning on purchasing a pair just to try them out, based on the component diagram I see no reason why I couldn't just get rid of the clamp and bolt the shifter onto the frame. As I understand it I might need to swap out the mounting bolt for an m5, but it seems perfectly adaptable.
Anyone already tried them out?
