Product Description
This is the ONLY top mount shifter I'm aware of that works as a clamp on! A short lived innovation from SunTour, the Symmetric shifters mounted to a single braze-on boss similar to a water bottle mount, located on the top tube of some Japanese bikes from 1982-83 (Bridgestone, Miyata, Shogun, Panasonic, Univega, plus Italian racers from Colnago, Pinarello, etc) It has a self-trimming design, the rear shifter "trims" to prevent the need to overshift and then move your lever back down into position.
