    Date Reviewed: August 5, 2008
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Price Paid: $70.00
    Purchased At:Jensen USA
    Strengths:Quick, Clean, Precise, light and easy to use.
    Weaknesses:None
    Similar Products Used:Other types of twist shifters, additionally I have used shimano XT, XTR's, Deore and Sram triggers.
    Bike Setup:GT Force 3.0, Carbon fiber handle bar, X-0 compontents to include a 12-32 rear cog, Crank Bros Acid Pedals.
    Bottom Line:I used lower end twist shifters and really liked them and thought they would be easier than triggers. I was correct. They exceed expectations, quick and precise. You can select 1 gear or all nine with just a slight motion. I watch guys attempting to dump gears and get stuck in the wrong gear while i spend half the time and get immediate results. Not even a fair comparison the Sram X-0 twist far out perform other types.

    Favorite Trail:Palo Duro Canyon
    Duration Product Used:3 months
    Price Paid: $80.00
    Purchased At:Broadway Bikes
    Strengths:Crisp, clean, quick, sharp,feels more natural, helps me to keep my elbows in, light, inexpensive
    Weaknesses:at first it is hard getting used to when you've been using triggers for the past year. But after a while of using them it smooths out.
    Similar Products Used:Some basic shimano stuff
    Bike Setup:Jamis 2006 Durango, Sram XO grip shifters, X9 rd, crank bros eggs, truvativ stem, kore flat bars
    Bottom Line:Shimano who?? Sram is the real deal, its crisp clean and quick, lighter than xo triggers and on a budget better price than x9 triggers. I will never go back to shimano, and wont go back to triggers. Value is 5 b/c of weight and price and benefitis to riding ability, overall a 4 b/c id expect sram to keep imroving in the future.
