I'm looking for a set of Shimano 9 speed barend shifters, new or used. Or a set of 8 speed shifters that can be set to friction or friction just barend shifters. I'm building up a tendem as a wedding present for my S.O. If you have a pair, or if your shop has a pair on the shelf let me know. This is the last part I need to finish the bike.HELP!

Our last touring bike was a Rans Screamer, we have just replaced it with a Organic Engines Troika Tandem.
So far the trike looks like it will work out very well for loaded touring. The only draw back so far is that it won't fit though a standard doorway. You have to pick it up and tilt it to get it though a door. This will only be a problem when we stop at hotels. Most of the time we camp so it should not be too much of a problem.
