I was lucky to find these levers today

Pretty early stuff , I would say

The levers are polygon ones , very well finished and practical as you can fit them on slightly different bar diameters thanks to the "half moon design" of the fixing system. The cable stops are the only flaw, in alu but not top quality.
They are stamped J 89
Is this US stuff or else ?

And the grips are stunning - they are marked plastiche Cassano - made in in Italy - and bloody good quality - hardly any wear :cool:

I love this old stuff which was clearly manufactured with no savings in mind and can still be used after more than 25 years of age :idea:
