### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than a twist shifter
*by A***L on 12 September 2025*

It's not perfect, not like a trigger shifter, but I couldn't find a six speed trigger shifter anywhere. I used it to replace a twist shifter on a folding bike. The twist shifter didn't have any increments, you just turned it until something happened. Then after a gear change you would be riding along and it would change down. It was so hit and miss it had to go. This is better but it's not 100% accurate. Some times it changes well, then it doesn't change, or changes two. I fitted new outer cable at the same time but no matter how long I spent trying to adjust it I couldn't get the change perfect. I'm going to run it for a while and see if the cable stretches at all and then re-adjust.
