Update Pros and Cons

Pros

It actually has about seven or eight. The sram is probobly bullet`proof.

Easy to install and easy fix for shifter/cable problems. Makes the job simple if you have the right allen wrench. Inexpensive and went on fine.

Bought item to replace a broken left shifter on a mongoose bike. Fits my shimano derailleur great. I'm 83 yrs and not a bike repair expert but it turned out fine and satisfied with operation. Works well with my huffy rocktrail mountain bike.

Quality


Very happy with the product and seller


Adjusting derailer isn't the simplest, but no fault of this product.


Much better quality then the oem unit!


Com, was amazingly helpful, with the trade.

Price


Work very well as replacement on mongoose, because the factory one only lasted 250 miles before breaking and the price was great.

Competitiveness


Worked perfectly to replace an older model.

The only reason i give it four stars is that i wish the cable weren't built in so it could be replaced instead of buying a new shifter.
