Touring bikes: Index or friction shifting?

However.... back 15 years ago when I did have a bike

make that small adjustment so that it was.
See my point?
Not really. After the cables bed in, a bike should shift perfectly
indefinitely.
OK
Maybe everything is index now? Friction no longer
available or desirable? tell me ok?
It's available if you want it. Ultegra bar-end shifters are switchable
to friction or index, best of both worlds. About $70.
Cool!
