    My commuter (mixte) has downtube shifters. They are not tricky at all once you get the hang of them.

    Yayyy!

    Here she is! I spent all day cleaning her and she's got some pretty significant rust but oh well! I did put a new saddle on her but everything else is original.

    It's a Fuji Gran Tourer SE and I believe it's a 1981.
