Any applicable fees will appear at checkout.

HELP SECTION

Fixing Type - if you have small mounts on either side of the frame’s down tube you need braze-on shifters, if there are no mounts you’ll need clamp-on (sometimes referred to as band-on). Some 'aero' frames have mounts fixed to the top of the down tube, for these frames you require top mount shifters for the correct boss type (see below). There are also 'Clamp-Over' shifters that allow front & rear shifters to be used on a frame that only has a single braze-on.

Shift Type - friction shifters don't click into gear when you change, when they do click it's referred to as indexed shifting. For this to work correctly you must use the same system as your rear derailleur, if you're using friction levers you can mix and match. You don't need to worry about the front derailleur as left downtube shifters aren't indexed.

Speed - the number of cogs at the back the right shifter is designed to be used with. This is important with indexed shifting but with friction shifters you can in theory run any shifters with any speed setup, although the right lever will need to be pulled back further to shift into the larger cogs.

Shifter Boss Type - the shape of the mount (for braze-on fixings only). Campagnolo / ISO is standard and easily identified by the flat sections on either side, usually combined with a square base for the backing stop plates to fit. There are also Shimano ones with a keyhole shaped base and much less common French ones that are round with no flat sections.

Boss Thread Size - M5 (5 mm) is standard for Campagnolo / ISO bosses, but Shimano bosses will often have M4.5 (4.5 mm) threads and the French bosses would likely have 5 x 1 mm threads.

Great for acne prone skin!
Size: 5.2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Has a very nice light scent. Non greasy. Worked well on my acne prone skin. It didn’t feel like it was heavy on my face. No white cast. This is a great all over sunscreen.

Love this sunscreen
Size: 2.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really love this sunscreen for my face and décolleté because it give the protection I want without the heavy greasy feel of sunscreen. Plus, it's perfect size to drop in my bag and no weigh me down. The bottle has never leaked. I really really like the non aerosol spray-even if it means that I have to spread it around a little, it's worth it for environmental reasons and honestly, it really didn't mess up my makeup at all when I patted it in gently. I didn't get blemishes from it at all. It doesn't have the full Hawaiian Tropic scent that we all know and love but it is very lightly scented and it is pleasant, still very tropical but more light and airy scented-not quite the same as the main line.

Very convenient
Size: 2.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
A great size to carry in your purse or car. My only complaint is it doesn’t make a nice mist so I have to rub it in, or spray it on my hands and pat it on. Smells good and works great.

My favorite facial sunscreen
Size: 2.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this sunscreen mist for the face. I have tried many facial sunscreens to protect against the Arizona sun and this is by far the best. So many sunscreens have a heavy feel, make my face sweat more, and end up clogging my pores. This sunscreen has a light, pleasant smell and is a lightweight spray. You spray it into your hand and smooth it on your face and neck. It feels hydrating without any heavy or greasy feel, and you can use foundation over it if you wish. It has done a great job protecting my skin, and just as important for me, it does not clog my pores and cause complexion issues. I have pretty sensitive facial skin and this has not caused any irritation at all. It is definitely worth trying and then buying again when you love it.
