General Information
Later version of the SL-A400 with the rear operating in SIS for 7sp freewheels.  Was used mostly with the 300EX groups through the 1990's, may have been around as early as the late 80's to be paired with the Shimano Light Action group as was the previous non-indexed version of these shifters with the same name.
