Hi folks,
I'm looking for a single Shimano labeled bar end shifter. Nothing special, just something functional. I'll be using it on the left side for either 2 or 3 chain rings depending on how the build goes. It will be mated with an 8 speed STI shifter on a rando style build I'm planning for a winter project.
Trade bits: a nice set of Huret DT shifters for braze-on mounting plus a bunch of vintage derailleurs, both Suntour & Shimano. Sorry, the only Cranes I have are either mangled or non-functional.
Cheers,
Van

Ran across this on eBay, and thought I'd post the info as someone here might be looking for one. Appears to be in good shape in photos. Obviously can't speak for cups/cones (no photos of item disassembled). No QR skewer included, unfortunately.

Cost is around $21 plus sales taxes, shipped (US address; shipping does vary somewhat with distance). The vendor also ships internationally, but shipping cost is much higher.

I have no commercial interest in the vendor (they're a charity). I have done business with them; they seem reliable. They do not accept offers of less than minimum starting bid.

Auction closes tomorrow at 1:42PM EDT. Vendor routinely re-lists items that don't sell at auction.

If no one gets one to you quicker I know I have one or two in my storage unit that I can dig out in a day or two.

Available for trade:

You might have seen this in the "Craigslist finds - are you looking for one of these?" thread or the "Saved from the Dump/ Catch of the day thread" Well it is making it's rounds and has landed here at ISO for trade. If no one local has a trade handy, it will make it's way to "Pay it Forward". Bike is available to anyone who can pick-up in San Pedro, CA (South LA) - no shipping.
Couldn't help myself and went and picked this up a few weeks ago. I decided I have too many projects (and not enough room) to take this one on. As far as trade, not looking for a lot, I got the bike for free. My total investment is about $20 in gas, hour and a half of my time for pick-up and a few hours of getting started cleaning rust off the chrome and metal bits. Things I could use in trade? saddle(s), bike tools, seatpost bolt 8mm x 22mm, pedals, front rack(s), True a wheel for me? or whatever you might have? (parts, no room for more bikes)

The Good: 1973 Raleigh Supercourse - Carlton - 531 frame - Capella lugs - Complete bike
The Bad: Cracks on welds on the caps of seat stays (apparently a common Raleigh problem?), Paint is beat-up, grime and rust (I got started, crank cleaned up nicely, but plenty left), mis-matched rims

Happy to answer any questions

I will link to an album of pictures:

just for clarity: you want a modern Shimano barcon unit, one with the "bent" lever and rubbery gray contact surface, right?
And NOT the older Shimano barcon that looks more like a SunTour or Campy unit, and had the coil-spring sort of fake 'retrofriction' feature?
There's a slight chance I have one of the modern jobbers, but will take a spell for me to look and see.

Apologies for misreading this I do not have a Shimano bar end available.

So you are doing brifters on one side and bar ends on the other?

Hi folks,

Sorry for the confusion. I got the 8 speed indexing bar end from a friend who asked me to upgrade a Cannondale that he got cheap. It had bull horn bars on it that he wanted to keep, but update to a 10 X 2. As purchased, it had the bar end on the right & cheapo thumb shifter on the left.
The newer, the better. Just looking for someone’s left overs.
Cheers,
Van

I have a nice-ish Raleigh branded pair of cranks and a nice-ish Raleigh Supercourse for them to go on - but no rings.

I'd probably take anything as long as the teeth are decent...
