Hi guy's,

Has anyone used one of the Cube speed shifters?

If so what are your thoughts on their feel, functionality and durability?

I've had one friend say that he has used one and that he was impressed with it.

I had a similar ratio short shifter at one stage. Extension block looks the same height as the cube. They all seem to be much the same.

The throw is too short in my opinion. As a result the action was overly firm. I tried resurfacing the wear plate and went as far as cutting up an original an using the plate out of it. Remained too stiff for me. Enough to make my shoulder sore after a drive.

Ideally I would have liked one with a block half the height. I reckon it would have been just right for me.
