Well, they're mid range Sachs-Huret. I think it is feel rather than the components though, partly me getting the feel for it and partly because the reach to the gear selectors is just that bit too far.
It's not a big deal, I'm sure it'll come, but I was really just saying to the OP don't be put off if you don't get it in 5 minutes.
Thanks! Believe me, if I put money into a bike with friction shifters, I'm gonna ride my money's worth out of it. Even if I completely fail at shifting gears, I'll ride it as if it's a single speed! :lol:

I changed to friction shift but still get clicking in the 2 higher gear. Older mtb with 6 speeds in rear. Can I switch to a long cage

You might have better luck posting this in the Mechanics subforum. Also, you have not described the problem very clearly, but my hunch is you need a new chain and freewheel rather than a new derailleur.
