🔲 microSHIFT 8-Speed Thumb Shifter Set, Compatible with Shimano, Ideal for Double or Triple Systems, Black Review

These are high-quality, beautiful and smooth shifters. I put them on friction and love the quiet simple functionality. I'll be getting another set soon. Definitely worth the money in my opinion.

All MTB shifters should be like this. I have used different Shimano derailleurs for 3 years (2) which is about 14,000 miles. Long stroke, soft, vague and inconsistent gear shifting. Enter microShift, they've addressed all of the above issues with their short travel (about 3/8") solid shifter design. Yes, they're expensive, but their value is a lot more than just money.

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…
