Murphs Bearinged Up Shifter 5

(1/5) > >>

VirginiaJim:
Well, every one at the time was getting one of these so I did as well.  Very well made IMHO.  However, it did nothing for me regarding shifting.  Couldn't tell the difference.  I'm not going to say it was a waste of money as it didn't really cost that much, but to me it nearly was.  I'm rating it a 5.

PlaynInPeoria:
I have heard that the plastic part it replaces wears out and then shifting gets ugly.  So perhaps putting that on a bike without the problem made the change unnoticeable but you prevented that failure in the future?

VirginiaJim:
praps, praps not.  It's an upgrade from what was there, of course, but is it worth the money?  I'm leaning towards not...although it isn't very expensive as upgrades go.

Gsun:
After I installed it, I miss almost no shifts at all. Can't say that before..... ;D

VirginiaJim:
Couldn't tell the difference, myself.  I wasn't missing shifts before and didn't miss any afterwards.
