They're Suntour Power Ratchet shifters, OEM from mid-1980s mid-to higher-end bikes, takeoffs from 1987-1988 or so when the original owner wanted to go to indexed shifting. Very good condition, very little use, no rust, with original black covers. I'm thinking $60 for the pair would be a reasonable price, and would get them back into service.

I have another pair that are fully functional but not as cosmetically pristine. I can't give a good price on those until I can dig them out tomorrow and assess their exact condition.

Let me get better photos for you tomorrow.

Thought you were selling WTB (Wilderness Trail Bikes) thumb shifter mounts and just about had a heart attack 😂
