Picked these up for my recumbent. The cables that came with it were just long enough to reach the rear derailer. They work as they should without the sticking that I have experienced with other trigger shifters. Very pleased so far.

Wish I had bought these when I bought a derailleur for my son's bike instead of after. Very easy install, took about 20 minutes and I'd never done it before. A few adjustments and it they both shifted fine with the shimano rear derailleur and the no name front shifter. Not sure of quality but they appear to be good enough for what I need.

I purchased these to replace some shimano twist shifters. The 7 speed side is dead on and works great. The 3 speed is very hard to adjust in the 3rd gear but this may just be a noncomputability issue with the derailleur as this shifter is upgraded from the one on the bike.

Great shifters and brakes that were easy to install and a joy to use. So happy with my purchase, especially for the price!

SOMETIMES you really DO get-what-you-pay-for...I couldn't find SHIMANO V-Brakes, so I took a chance on these (obvious) CLONES :-| ...- They INSTALLED just FINE;- They accepted high-quality cables & housings just FINE:- The REAR (7-gear) appears to work just FINE so far; BUT- The FRONT (3-gear) was BROKEN from the moment I tried the shifter :-OWORKED ALL AFTERNOON converting my road bike over to mountain bike with these shifters...... and as I shifted on my first test-drive... the front shifter (pulling on the cable to shift to LARGER gear ring) slipped inside its housing and DIDN"T pull on the cable.COMPLETE JUNKOFF to find replacements.Will NEVER buy from this vendor again - ever.-mad-as-Hell in North Aurora IL

Installation was straight forward but took a while because I had to pull the gear shift wires out of their covers to install the new ones. It was worth the effort as I was able to run some light oil down the wires - my bike is over 40 years old (as can be seen in the pictures!) and this was the first time that has been done. Sorry bike! Brakes would have been really easy except my originals didn't have a side exit for the wire so they also had to be fully pulled apart - and oiled. Really nice, quick action for the rear cogs now and all 7 gears can be selected. It takes quite a bit of effort to select the large drive cog (3) at the front, but that is an adjustment issue that I need to tweak. Overall, an excellent replacement for my old levers and they forced me to do some maintenance, which was long overdue.Update Jan 11 2020I have had constant issues with the front 3-speed changer, it was always a struggle to find the top gear, requiring heavier and heavier thumb pressure to find the large gear. Eventually, it simply would not find it and, dismantling the lever, it could quickly be seen that the internals were worn out. Cheap/soft material not up to any sort of long term use. A real shame since the 7-speed rear shifter is still working properly. Don't buy these!

I put these shifters on my son's Schwinn Ranger 21 speed. He had the twist grip kind and they would get stuck. The bike is not real high dollar. 200 bucks new at target. I didn't want to spend a lot fixing the bike up so I took a chance on a brand I have never heard of because the price was cheap. I put these on and got everything adjusted and I am surprised just how nice these shifters are. The only thing I don't like is the brake levers don't have a screw to bring the brake handle closer to the bar for smaller hands. The lever is pretty far and there is no way to shorten that gap. It is a little awkward for my son. Other than that, these are sweet. I rode his bike around awhile after getting the dérailleurs adjusted and didn't get any chain rub, or other shift issues.

These work well for what I needed them for. The left hand shifter has a little trouble and requires really pushing hard to get into 3rd gear (even with no derailleur resistance.) But the work fine and I won’t use 3rd gear much anyway

Just installed these and tested. I have to give them 2.5 stars (5 for the rear 1 for the front). The 7 speed side works amazing through all gears. Hits them right on and the brakes seem solid. I also like the speed downshifting capability. if you press lightly you can go down one gear, if you press a little further you can go down multiple gears. I can get through all 7 gears with 2 quick full presses going down. this will make the unexpected hill much easier. Going to higher gears is one press per gear. So on the 7 speed side I give it a 5.The 3 gear side I have to give a 1.When I tested it prior to being put on the bike it seemed like it would go through all 3 gears forward and backward. after putting it on the bike it was not able to handle the spring rebound of the front derailleur. It would shift through the bottom 2 rings just fine but when it would get to he top ring it would never lock in place and always just come back down (I also noticed the plastic casing of the shifter flexing trying to get to the top ring).Before people start to get on me about adjustment screws....The original front shifter still works great in all 3 positions!So after installing the back which was broke but now works better than it ever has I was excited to try out the front. Unfortunately since I could never get this one to lock on the top front gear. I tried adjusting the cable length and the screws on the front derailleur thinking maybe that either of those would help. I came to the conclusion that it was ultimately the spring tension in the top ring position. I did this by taking the derailleur out of the equation and gradually pulling the cable harder by hand (no tools used just cable wrapped around gloved hand) pulling on the cable just slightly did not allow it to lock into the top position. I had to revert to the old front.Since I already cut the cable to length on the back i'm probably not going to return it unless there is a way to only return one...
