SHIFT LEVERS:
MAVIC 820 - shift control levers - retro-friction type design - braze-on mount - post 1977 "open hoop" style aluminum alloy levers - Clear anodized finish - model 820 ... [Generally acknowledged as the best down tube friction shifters ever marketed to the general public, the version seen here are basically post 1977 "open hoop" second edition Simplex SLJ (Super Lucien Juy) retro-friction alloy shift levers absent the word "SIMPLEX" which would normally have been proudly emblazoned across their facing. In actuality, Simplex licensed these units for OEM use in conjunction with several other component manufacturer and/or manufacturer group offerings such as those once sold under the brands Spidel, Galli, Gipiemme, OFMEGA, and in this particular instance, MAVIC.]
