Ryk,
The twisted brass shift bar is PERFECT!!!

It's hard to explain, but I think that because I've used a lot of brass for accent on my bike, the brass rod looks all that more genuine!

For such a little addition, it REALLY sets off the look. I had no idea it would be that much of an improvement.
Pleased doesn't say it all.
I would STRONGLY recommend that everyone consider the addition for their bikes. It is probably close to one of the greatest upgrades I've added, AND I'VE ADDED A LOT OF THINGS!
Your filter is boxed, addressed, and will be dropped off at the P.O. tomorrow.
Again, THANKS for such a small item that makes such a BIG difference.

Ya'll need to have a look at Ryks' rod!

(you'll be as impressed as I am!)
Peace,
Erle.
