XT thumbshifters

Aren't digital cameras brilliant? You'd really think taking a picture of these shifters would be incredibly easy, but no. The fuzzy effort you see underneath my prose is the result of many attempts, and I am in a bad mood now.

Anyway:

They are XT, they are 7 speed with the extra bit of travel for 8 speed setups and are in excellent condition. Thirty five quid posted.
 
I have to agree with you on the digi camera thing, I hated mine so much i gave it away and bought a camcorder instead :lol: :lol: :lol:

A s*it one.

Ok :wink: a little elaboration would go a long way. It may be cheap, but there are tricks with digital camera photography that I've learned. Your camera may have some functions with which you are unfamiliar.

Just trying to help. If its a box with one button on it then pony up the 100 or so quid and get one with a digital macro. Very, very cool function.

No worries buddy...I am no technophobe, I work in the HQ of one of the UK's biggest electrical retailers! This, however, is a borrowed camera. No macro mode makes for some fuzzy thumbshifters and some tested patience.
I had to photograph my turntable with it too. You don't want to buy a Linn record player, do you? You will be helping my car pass its MOT and be contributing to my Surly. Can you imagine how good that will make you feel?
