Yeah, its actually Brandon's only shifter. Keeps the bars cleaner, and everything more tucked together.

On the fly yep, but for someone who does a run at a time i think its just fine for him.

Actually he doesn't do it to "keep the bars cleaner," he uses a downtube shifter so he can use a hydraulic gyro for barspins.

it shouldn't be difficult to change gear when there are a plethora of no-hand tricks in semenuk's trick bag.

I think youre both wrong. He didnt want a water bottle rack there, and had to fill the holes so they just threw the shifter on there with a custom cnc'd lever perch. And in the end it just made sense. No just messin.

Hey thanks captain obvious ! actually it's used just as everyone above has said. why make a custom frame with bottle cage holes when he doesn't want em? seems stoopid to me. he just uses it to keep it clean and out of the way for tricks e.g tailwhip, barspins ect.

its a SRAM TT Shifter. its designed for Time Trial Bikes for Track use.

F**king cool Idea though!!!

flag seraph (Jul 30, 2009 at 14:38)
Not for track use, just time trial. Track is something different. It's basically a bar-end shifter.
