sorry bud, they've been using that linkage since '03 or '04 I think. not a new copy of commencal. especially once they've experimented once or twice successfully and decide they know what's up, so they really start going to town on it. something doesn't work, they bring it in to the shop, and you go to fix it, but you have to figure out what pieces and parts are missing before you can even start from ground zero. rather than lube the housing before a new cable, run new housing as well. it helps crisp up the shifts and only costs a couple of bucks. and be careful what kind of lube you use in the shifters, some stuff will actually be detrimental to shifting performance by attracting dirt and dust and whatnot, which will gum up the pawls. 
it's sick. especially the whole enchilada route. it's like 29 miles long. 11,000 feet of descent, and like 2,000 overall climbing. it's sick.
we'll get a group going down for it a couple times when burro pass and hazard county clear. 
it's a juicy 7 lever with code calipers. avid did it just for specialized. it's only called slickrock cause in the old days, the wagons and horses couldn't grip on it. it's probably one of the most abrasive surfaces naturally occuring in the world.
that's my little blue truck! with more than it's ever gonna be worth sitting on the tailgate. 
yeah, it's gone.
i didn't know that, what transition specifically does it look like?
