I have Shi*mano on one bike, I really don't like the vague feel compared to SRAM and I can just never, ever keep the Shimano indexed. Set it up and within a ride it's all over the place. My SRAM is perfect once set up - I just leave it alone. When I have some cash, the Shimano is getting converted to SRAM.

Not debating which is better but it's not Shimano's fault you can't index their stuff properly as plenty of people can...

((If you must cut pre threading heat with a lighter first - makes the cut cleaner and keeps the strands together. ))

I love how people state that "x product is shit because i can't do x with it" - get some maintenance skills!

No raph like i said before when i accidentally cut the cable too short i went to my LSB got a new cable just come home now and it works fine
what it was is.. i put the coil spring inside the shifter in wrong so i corrected that and put the new cable in and adjusted the high and low settings and cable tension on the front using the barrels and now its all working fine i do have the skills but im also very clumsy but im still going to stick with what i said " sram shifters are a pain" lol
