Bar end shifters not 100%

Good news.

I notice Evans don't sell the Fuji Touring any more, and as they are the sole UK agent I guess that means your bike could be described as 'rare' should you ever wish to list it on eBay

Oh yeah, just had a look. I wonder why that is.

Most likely they've run out of stock of the 2014 models. Tourers are a niche product and they never get them in huge quantities.

Must admit I did look at the Fuji and Jamis Aurora tourers at Evans, the price and spec was pretty good compared to the Ridgeback and Dawes tourers. I think the Galaxies are way overpriced for what they are. Even Spa are offering massive discounts on them and have stopped selling the disc braked tourers altogether.

In the end I bought a used 2012 Dawes Horizon Plus with the same Dura Ace bar end shifters. They work great and the friction shifting is a nice option.

Had dura bar ends and they worked fine. Sounds like a cop out.
