I can probably switch the shifter with SRAM, but will worry about it later. I am curious what their price point would be. If it's under $10, I will be a happy camper.

Anyways...will replace a very critical component today. The brake cables. The stock one's are very flimsy and keep stretching to no end. It may snap if you brake hard.. Got a pair of new cables for few bucks...and will be replacing it now.. It should make a huge difference...and not need any adjustment after every rides.



Left cable: Stock Cable; Right: Replacement cable. It's much stronger and thicker.
