This thing is deeply and profoundly ugly. The copy accompanying it also fails to inspire much confidence it its performance.
Our Bike Shift Lever has only six parts - four are common items and two are cast out of scrap aluminum using the techniques outlined in our book, Backyard Aluminum Casting. This shifter works for either the front or rear derailleur and for all gear ranges. It also works for throttles and chokes on other sorts of machines such as yard equipment, small motorcycles, and boats. It is designed for easy production and repair by people who rely on their bicycles every day.
The good news seems to be I can buy their book and make my own shifters!
