I was looking for 7 speed barend shifters for a while, couldn't find any, then someone told me that 7 and 8 speed shifters pull the same amount of cable, so 8 speed barend shifters will index no problem, and they're quite easy to find on ebay.

Somebody mentioned ultegra 8spd barends + cables and housing for under $60? Where are those?
