You get what you pay for when it comes to shifters. That shifter is priced like junk because it is junk.

Take a peek at the MGW, and check out our offerings as well: http://www.tick-performance.com/tick...body/shifters/

MGW Doesnt allow any venders to sell their shifter. Its their own way of quality control and so on. They are top notch guys though and it took me 28 hours to get my shifter. Just search the web for them and youll find the site.
