Good shifters, work nicely
They works well. Replaced grip shifters that were being an issue. Probably going to replace the the front and rear and rear derailers later with same series components. Just name due when install you adjust your derailers appropriately. And remember to replace your handle bar grips if you are replacing grip shifters. Your sick ones will be a little short and make placement of these a little awkward.

Great shifters!
Had to replace my shifters on my old Raliegh mountain bike. I had to replace the garbage twist shifters which had melted from being outside and used so much. I really wanted to move to an easier shifting setup so these paddle style shifters are significantly easier to shift when going up and down hills. I order these from Amazon and got them in two days. Well worth the money, especially for my old bike. My only complaint is it looked like they came with the bake cables too, but they do not. Just the shifter cables.

Just installed...one short ride
Ordered these after returning a previous order of a set that cost a few dollars less after two days of use These went on my 1993 Diamond Back MTB with no problems, spent some time tweaking the cable and derailleurs until they shifted smoothly through all gears. Look and feel great.

Great value, solid crisp shifting, seamless install
Good product, easy to use, and has enhanced my shifting to be one-click and fluid. On down-shifts, you have the option to "throw" the lever, and drop 2 gears in one shot, which is pretty cool. Otherwise, effortless clicks to stage up and down. Seams to be a decent quality - I have used on only a couple rides so far, but they've endured 30 miles of constant gear changes.

Work great so far
Installed this bad boys on my bycicle and they work great. I would recommend tho that you install some type of abbrasive pad on the thumb shifter so that when you're in the moment your thumb won't slip out with the sweat.
