paddle shift

Just finished fitting my paddle shift system. Everything seems to work ok, just need to see if I get on with changing gear like that. Took it round the block several times and found my self reaching for the gear stick. Only time will tell.

Likewise, takes a bit of getting used to.
Out of interest which paddle is up on your system, left or right?

Right for up, left for down. It just seemed the right way. What have you done?

Well i have to confess, thats how i intended to do it, but somehow between sketching it on paper, and then making it, i dropped a goolie, so its the other way round. Thats why i think it might feel weird. I'm gonna put some miles on it before i decide to pull it apart or not.

Have you been able to retain the Sierra switch gear? Im seriously considering ditching my cable shange having just snapped it and going paddle but the electrics are in and complete and I dont want to have to use alternative switches.

Thanks

No,
all the switch gear was removed.
