WTB/trade stuff for Huret ratchet shifters
Huret made two versions of these levers, plastic and aluminium; and for braze-on, downtube, or stem/bar mounts.
What I'd like is a set of the ally bar-mounts.
Have lots of stuff to trade, ex:
zero-wear set of downtube Suntour Power shifters
Shimano Blueline (in black) long-cage rear and matching front mechs
Fuji-branded Suntour VX rear mech
etcetera

Might help to include a pic, but....al that Velobase has a picture of is for these which are clamp-on downtube models.
I didn't see any that had plastic levers but presume they'd be Delrin but have the same "retrofriction" style bodies as these (?)
If you (anyone) have a better photo of what the stem shifters look like please post it.
meantime I don't think I have anything but can look!

These ones:

The plastic ones have only three grooves at the tops of the levers.

These are basically thumbies? I have never those before. Pretty rare I would imagine.

oh those levers. I think I once had a pair but doubt I held onto them. I will check anyway.
I thought some with the same shape were bog-simple friction (no ratchet) but maybe I don't recall right.

I'm pretty sure I have a set (Velobase link), but may need some guidance to distinguish between alloy and plastic - is that the lever or the mount or the . . . ?
I recall that they came from an 80s Motobecane MTB. I can check tonight if you have an interest.

I have a set of downtube Huret ratcheting shifters I plan on using for a build, but I had no idea they made thumbies as well.
