 Yes, it's a Shimano Saint M810 trigger shifter bolted to his water bottle mounts on the top of his downtube. Pretty simple.

 joesepocent92 why does he need to shift while doing tailwhips and x ups and actually he wouldnt because to shift you need to pedal and to tailwhip you need to hole onto he barsand the bike would be spinning anyway

 well, i think one cable is better than two cables getting all tangled up. i think sram did something with his cable though like putting it through the headset maybe? i saw a prototype picture of something like that. shifting and pedaling dont always have to go together. you can shift, then pedal to make a shift

 He doesn't use SRAM, he uses Shimano.

 Check it. I know there he is using a saint shifter and probably a different bracket, but same idea.

 yeah, i dunno if anyone else does it too but when they land, hit there triggers and shift gears unintentionally, that would put an end to that.

 ok people, if you have an ounce of common knowledge here then listen, Cam has a hydro gyro, which means he can spin his bar infinite times without his brake cables geting tangled. now, if you keep the shitfter on the bars, there is now a cable to get tangled, defeating the purpose of a gyro all together. when riding slope you rarely need to shift, in fact almost never, so having it on the downtube is no big deal.

 It is more similar to the new 2010 Remedy frame than the 2009 model, but it has custom geometry and less than 150mm of travel.
