Pros & Cons
Pros
Bought to install on my wife's kona cindercone. Very nice product for the money and an inexpensive upgrade. It integrates perfectly with my other shimano components.
Fast, great shift feel, accurate and solidly built. Easy to read while moving fast, no binding or slipping when moving up and down gears. Minutes and then another 5 or so adjusting the position to my liking.
Now they work on the easy stuff and the rough stuff. My son really likes them and they work great. They contain directions for all different kind of shimano parts.
Highlights
Quality
They work very well, and seem a better quality then the original ones.
Much better than the junk that came with the bike, much easier to shift.
They won't work with the megarange rear gear cog.
I got this along with the 8-speed right shifter mechanism.
Price
The low price is an extra bonus.
) acera is a low-tier shimano groupset.
Competitiveness
Smooth, solid shifter for mid level to lower high-end bikes.
Very sharp shifter, reliable (has taken a beating on the mountain bike), and a good price.

The first problem i had was the location of the small lever sometimes gives me a minor cut on my knuckle when landing hard from a jump or drop

That being said i am really rough on my full rigid bike with little to absorb impacts and vibrations and i am sure these shifters are perfect for the majority of riders
