Review on ๐Ÿ”ฒ microSHIFT 8-Speed Thumb Shifter Set, Compatible with Shimano, Ideal for Double or Triple Systems, Black by Jeff Drollinger

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very slim, great solution for city/touring riders

I've ridden these Microshifts several hundred miles now and I have to say I love them. They are perfect for city riding and other recreational (non-competitive) rides that I do. They are good when you have other things to do, like watching cars and pedestrians. The action is very clear and precise, shifting becomes a subconscious activity. That's great. However, they are quite expensive. I don't know why, other Microshift products are not that expensive. However, I'm glad I have them and don't hold the price for them (much) because I think they will last a very, very long time. I don't know what Revane means by "transparency" so I didn't rate it. But they look good. If I have any complaints it's that I couldn't get them anodized in black.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly dented
