Where to get some 7 speed thumb shifters or rapid fire?

I’m wanting to replace the grip shift on an old 7 speed bike I have. All the usual places like CRC only seem to do 8 speed up now, and I don’t want to spend mega bucks, I really just want to replace the stiff naff gripshift.

So does anyone know where I can get some of those 7 speed thumbies that (used to?) come on £150 Apollo/Saracens etc from Halfords??

what brakes are you using ?

Theres some 7 speed XT thumbies on ebay.

7sp STX on Chain Rection

7/8 speed – doesn’t matter. Cassette spacing will be the same, just get 8 spd and don’t use the top click (or better still, use them unindexed.)
