Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Installation is very simple requiring a metric allen wrench, a needle-nosed pliers and small metric wrench to tighten the cable. Easy to install and worked on my mongoose bike.

Works fantastic and it ended up fixing two bikes. These are very inexpensive but every excellent replacements. This pair of shifters is a bargain.

Quality


So many other things i buy on amazon don't last or failthis continues to work and replaces the original shifter bought 17 years...  Read More


Looks nice, easy to install, and makes shifting better than other shifting controls.


While i wish that the mechanism were a bit more robust, the actual installation and fine tuning were quite simple.


You will need a good set of clippers to cut the excess cable.

Price


The ones i purchased cost about $10, money well spent to complete the job properly.

Shipping


Should have ordered the derailleur also (bit more damage/age then expected, ah well, probably would have saved a little on shipping).


Arrived within stated time frame (usps, 6-9 days).

    A couple of thoughts take several pictures of the cable routing so don’t make mistakes and if you don’t already own one purchase a pair of cablecutters to trim the excess

    Otherwise you will soon learn that ordinary side cutters or wire cutters will seriously fray the cable before actually cutting it instead of making a clean cut

    I made sure to check the gear settings on the bike before removing them and matched the new shifters to the same setting before i tightened the cable
