If it clicks, it has a power ratchet. The ratcheting mechanism in the originals is the same as the original bar-ends, which is to say that the Silver 2 shifters will have a more refined ratcheting mechanism than the original Suntour shifters. I can't remember off the top of my head, but there

For those who still want the traditional downtube shifter shape, Dia Compe makes them with the same ratcheting friction internals as Silver shifters. It's cosmetically a little different, but functionally it's the same shifter. I'd guess this is a little bit why Riv is making something new

Assuming I'm looking at the same unsold listing on eBay, seller notes it'll fit 38mm, which means it's a larger clearance version - it looks like it based on the photos, I think. I'd wager if it fits WTB Horizons, which it likely will, that Paul Racers (advertised 67mm max reach) won't be long

There were at least a couple versions were clearance was different. Later ones had more clearance. I have a Redwood (less fancy/expensive Ram, supposedly similar/identical in most non-cosmetic aspects) - fits Compass Barlow Pass tires (~37mm actual). Would definitely fit 32mm plus fenders.
