whats the weight ?
well long story short, the hose popped and it lost tons of fluid. that's the atomlab one, and cam showed me his (the Trickstuff one) and it works perfect. the plan is to get one of those when I get enough money, but until then i'm just running a normal brake
the atomlab one retails for $90-100
the trick-stuff one is around $200
if I were you i would go for the trickstuff one. looks to work wayyy better

i cut out sections of a piece of old handlebar so there was the full circle of it wide enough for the shifter to mount, with flat spots on both sides. then i hoseclamped the flat spots to the frame 
that's about the closest shot of the shifter i have

you can see the piece of bar I used in the upper left of this shot
hopefully that helps!

i like the design, but whats the point of it being there and how do you shift. sorry, you probably hear this alot. im just curious.
so he can bar spin/tailwhip without the gear cable getting stretched. and i'd guess you would just reach down n change it
well to mount it I just used part lying around my garage. I cut off an piece of handle bar from an old pair I had lying around. Then I made "L" shaped cuts out of each side leaving the full circle in the middle with flat parts next to it.
like this(the thing in the left corner)
I then slid the shifter on the piece of bar, and put hoseclamps around the frame and flat spots of the bar to attach it all to the frame. I put strips of rubber between the hoseclamps and the frame as well, so it wouldn't scratch. hope that helps!

wow it looks so sick!! Question, what do you do with the shifter cable when putting on a gyro? How does that work?
thanks! the shifter is on the frame, so it doesn't pass by the stem. the front brake is through the steerer tube, leaving only the rear brake hose, which you can connect to the gyro.
