Hiya

I'm trying to find a set of old school Shimano 105 index shifters, either downtube mount (preferably band-on) or bar end, for a retro roadie project.

Ideally 6 speed, but if I can get a 7 to work with the spacing (hopefully) then that will do.

No joy from eBay or any LBS...if you have anything kicking around you want to sell please let me know!

Thanks!

Iain

post a wanted add in classifieds on http://www.singletrackworld.com  although mountain bike focused, roadie bits do pop up.

Also there is a retrobike site (don't know url) google is you friend, you might also try a road riding forum and place a wanted add.

I have some Ultegras on my bike IIRC, around early 90's vintage. Its up in the loft though so I'm not going to check biggrin

They are indexed, 6 speed I think although I'm not sure. Mounted on a band (the frame doesn't have brazed fittings).

Let me know if you want them. Dark gray (darker than 105's).
