{"product_id":"zz16zkjndlkfn-akn","title":"Shifter Mount - Silver Bar End Pod (each)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese are virtual but ethically produced knock-offs of Shimano bar-end shifter pods, and allow you to mount most downtube shifters as bar-end shifters. If you already have Silver1 DT shifters, or SunTour Sprints, or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.rivbike.mom\/products\/kjalgjoihjga44451\" target=\"_blank\"\u003exoxo\u003c\/a\u003e's, you'll need these to convert them to bar-end shifters.

There are ways to monkey with certain parts of the system, washers and spacers from Shimano downtube (dt) shifters and so forth, but it is beyond the scope here to explain the play-by-play solutions, and none are easy. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eSo, get these pods here only if you have down tube shifters that mount onto brazed-on shifter bosses without special spacers specific to that particular model shifter. We have centuries of experience here, but telling us you have a Trek Whatever from the '90s or a SunTour shifter from Whenever doesn't provide sufficient information to determing whether these will work. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- If you have a Campy dt shifter from the '70s, no problem. - If you have a SunTour friction dt shifter from the '70s, PROBABLY no problem. \u003cbr\u003e- If you have SunTour Sprint dt shifters, definitely no-problem. \u003cbr\u003e- If you have Shimano downtube or bar-end shifters then you need to get the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.rivbike.mom\/products\/shimano-bar-end-shifter-spacer-washer-pair-17135\"\u003eShimano spacers\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut anything else, it's probably not going to work. Silver shifters are better anyway---just get them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf the shifter mounts onto a steel frame using just that round spacer with the square hole and the bent foot-stop, the aluminum one that virtually all pre-indexed, brazed-on style downtube shifter used, then ok. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey fit in handlebars made to be bar-end compatible. The base of the pods is 19mm, so if the interior diameter of your handlebars is less than that, yer outta luck. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWork on all of our bars except bullmoose and dove. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're using these with Silver1 or Silver2 shifters, be sure to match type O to type O, and type X to type X.  In other words, a type X shifter won't go on a type O pod\/thumb shifter mount.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dia-Compe DiaTech (361)","offers":[{"title":"Left (type X)","offer_id":31122638143599,"sku":"sh13-17068-LEFT","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Right (type O)","offer_id":31122638176367,"sku":"sh13-17068-RIGHT","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1403\/7343\/files\/20250212_untitled_shoot71.jpg?v=1739398254","url":"https:\/\/www.rivbike.mom\/products\/zz16zkjndlkfn-akn","provider":"Rivendell Bicycle Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
