I'm not looking to spend a lot of money on this, it's not a good enough bike and since it's a 24" she'll outgrow it in a couple years, but since this is her first mountian bike, I don't want to turn her off of it because the shifter is squirrelly. I have a hunch that the shifter is REALLY a 10-speed shifter with a sticker on it that says it's a 5-speed one. My question is, though - where can I get a 5-speed shifter? I haven't been able to find any other than some old ones on ebay. Basically push it up until it shifts, then dial it back down so the derailleur won't rub (that's actually more a problem on the front than the back, of course). The marks indicate 5 speeds but it's out of tune I think since it doesn't shift anywhere near where the marks are, and she has to sort of play with it to get it to shift. Its a simple thumb shifter with a single lever. The problem is, it's a 15-speed (3 in front, 5 in back) and the shifters are really strange, especially the right side. one of those "we bought her a bike but she never rode it and now it's too small for her" sort of things.Īnyway. It's not a high-end bike (a Huffy, but probably the walmart or academy sports variety), but it was very cheap (under $20) and effectively brand new. Right lever is index or friction selectable.I bought a mountain bike for my daughter at a yard sale recently. Our original and go to shifter, stunning speed, durability and lighter weight than a set of Ultegra!ġ00% Shimano Road compatible so will work with our derailleurs or a Shimano Ultegra, Dura-Ace or 105.ĬX2 comes as a pair of shifters and will work with a double or triple chainring.ĬX1 also comes as a pair of shifters but left side lever does not have a shift lever mount as it is for single chainring set ups. Built with the same technology (basically simplicity!) as our CX Cyclocross shifters the only difference here is that this model will work with Linear Pull, V-Brakes and MTB Disc Brakes (Super for a loaded tourer, or even a tandem!). You know, I could take them off tomorrow and bin ’em easily since I have plenty of idle STI levers now! So you know I must think highly of them, and I do.” – Mark Stevenson, Riding īuilding up a touring bike or commuter with one of so many still available and excellent Shimano Road Compatible MTB derailleurs then this will likely be your your first choice of shifter. “The front shifting is friction based, and with the derailleur limits set correctly, it is the best front shifting performance I have ever had.” – Nick Burklow, Bike One advantage of the system is that you can sweep the entire cassette (in either direction) with one motion.” You get a nice solid, but not alarming, clunk with each indexed click for the rear. “Shifting performance has been fantastic. We absolutely love the shifting and find that we can execute every rear shift easily from the hoods.” – Andrew Yee, CX Magazine.
