Mike:

FRICTION THUMBIES!!!  (Pure joy)

Those mid-80s Suntour XC thumbies (on Garth's bike) and the Shimano Deore 
polished aluminum shifters from the same era are simply THE BEST...
Nothing made today (even the Paul Thumbies) comes close to those early MTB 
ratchet shifters... they will last forever.  

Peace,
BB
