Not sure when it was introduced, so apologies if it's not pre 97. I've never used grip shift, but toying with the idea on a build just to do something different.
The set I have is SRAM X0 9sp (assuming pretend carbon or are they?) so probably not pre 97, but interested to hear people's opinions on whether it is any good, robust etc. Do I need to use specific brake levers to accommodate the shifters or will any normal brake lever be fine? What grips do leople with them? Cut down normal ones? Mini lock ons?
I was rummaging through my SRAM stash today to lull together a sale thread, but having second thoughts on the grip shift as I'm usually throwing Shimano at my builds but maybe I should try something new for me and a build?
