Easily replace worn factory shifters for a lot less.

Easy replacement for worn OEM switches at a much lower price than big brands. In general very satisfied. An indexing issue on the derailleur makes it difficult to get the derailleur to stop rubbing on the chain, but it works. Recommended and I would buy again.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly dented

Can't rotate.

I mounted it on my Shimano 27 speed derailleur and it took all my strength to turn it. I played around with it for a long time and in the end I couldn't take it anymore and bought a Shimano Revo shifter. The Revo circuit worked without any problems. The Ventura Changelings are on their way to the junkyard. They are completely useless on my Shimano 27 speed.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Very expensive

Derailleur won't hold 3rd gear

Look and feel good but derailleur for derailleur shifts fR enough to shift to a higher gear but reverses until then back just as long while holding the chain during downshifts. It just doesn't stay in place. Apart from that I think it needs to be done. I don't want to disassemble it and send it back.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Quick and easy replacement of defective switches.

Quick and easy replacement for broken derailleurs when bike broke. A neighbor who wrecked her bike needs it to get to work. Inexpensive but works as it should and is easy to install. longer to get the necessary tools and put them down after replacement/repair/installation than replacing switches and cables. If I ever needed snap switches again I would look for a set of these.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
