Types of quick/flat shifters?
I may be dreaming, but I have a birthday coming up and was going to suggest everyone chips in for a flat shifter, but now I'm confused!
My BEC has paddle shifts on an R1. Am I right in thinking that some systems register stress in the paddle linkages and cut power to allow up
shifts?
Next question. If someone else is paying, is the best system up and down shifts, or push button up and down to replace the paddles with a piston
thingy?
Any reccomendations or warnings or explainations welcome!
Cheers
Ed

The powershifters have very little feel for the gearbox.... If its not set up perfectly it will still put the gear in at the expense of the box.
At least with your hand you get feed back.
With the electrical shifter it kind of takes the feel away. Athoirs has a cutout on the gear rod that works much better.
I also felt for road driving the push button system was overkill. For racing yes, for road no

I have a kliktronic setup complete with pro race titanium paddles on a custom made boss, I bought it off here for £320, looking to get my money back!
would cost around £1200 to buy new!
