Thanks. Presume you're aware of this thread, but I'll post just in case. https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vint ... sions.html
Gear shifters are a happy result of not wanting to shell out for bar end shifters and the downtube being oversized and therefore no good for the band-on Suntour Powershifters I had lying around. Thankfully they work perfectly on the 28.6mm top tube thanks to their built-in cable stops and the ones brazed on to the downtube!
