Gripshift……a forgotten pleasure.

I can see that being able to shift more than 2 gears at a time would be a real advantage with 1×10 or 1×11 systems – where I ride there are lots of short, sharp ups and downs and I’ve got the habit of dropping between big and little ring at the front.

The equivalent in a 1x setup must be to change about 4 gears at once. With triggers shifters that’s a lot of clicks.

Anyone gone from 2×10 to 1×11 gripshift?

Useless fact of the day for scrap bin builds:-

A micro-index Sachs Wavy LH / front shifter indexes perfectly with a Shimano 9 speed cassette and rear mech (I’ve run one as a rh shifter on a 1×9).
