Description: Probably the nicest non-boutique bar-top thumb shifter that was made, (even nicer than Deore XT, in my opinion), unless you want a true friction mode which this does not have. Unscrewing the D-ring a few turns allows you to set it to 'F8/F7' mode, which removes most of the free play from the lever mechanism (and allows the tightness to be more finely controlled with that same D-ring), but this does not fully disengage the 'clicks'. In terms of indexed shifting, it is officially labeled for both 7 and 8 speeds. Looking at the 1993 Suntour catalog, it seems to be the same model for XC-Pro as for XC-Comp. Features a nice forged (or cast?) aluminum bracket which won't bend or snap like the steel ones on cheaper thumbies. Plus the barrel adjuster action is in a different league than anyone else was doing at the time. This is just the rear, so you can make your 1x8 dreams come true. Could be really fun with the upcoming Essa drivetrain. Ships within 3 business days, Monday-Thursday
