French shifters
Spidel (actually Simplex SLJ). TAKEN!!!
** Note the hole for the right shifter cable previous owner got a brake cable stuck in there and chewed it up
It still holds a cable head with zero issues but it's not pretty
$30 shipped Canada or lower 48 US
Spidel shifters gone to Mad Honk
Sachs removed from sale
These are puzzling (not on Velobase) and usually seen marked Sachs Huret not just Sachs.
In the very nice shape but I've lost the one bolt for tightening it to the bars. Pretty much any similar bolt will work.

Should be pointed out that these have a ratchet-action, quite a nice one, small divisions.
After I had a downtube set on a bike I looked for and got some more for other bikes, including a set of thumbies (as above).
I like 'em.

They’d be great for a retro-mod 1x set up!
