alright my sram sx4 front der. shifter has broken twice on the same part in the last few months, i feel like its time to upgrade to a better quality. am I just shifting too harshly? What do you guys recommend? i don't mind replacing both, but i am short on cash so if it can be the front that would be best.
Was it the same shifter or was the first one replaced and that one broke too? I've always found anything by SRAM to be wasy durable, especially compared to Shimano junk.
I replaced the one that came on the bike after it broke. Then the one I replaced it with broke. The same piece broke actually. Its the plastic gear that gets rotated when you shift. The piece where the wire and stop connect broke off so the wire came out.
I would just get some X9 shifters, there tough as hell.
That is what I was going to say. Sram shifts much cleaner than shimano IMO.Quote:
