Its funny...looking at the whole bike at once it looks like some frankenbike but when you look up close at the details you can tell it was put together thoughtfully and most of all, done properly.
My Raleigh has those same model power shifts and they rapidly became my favorite pre-index shifter (can you still call them friction with the ratchet?). Not the lightest thing in the world but they feel solid and they stay where you put them. They just feel so right.
Just picked up a pair of bar end power shifts and my mind is numb as to what bike (the Raleigh or the Fuji) to put them on.
