I have used their r7 and r9 STI style shifters as well as 11sp bar end shifters mounted on hoods(gevenalle).
I considered their 11sp shifters for a new build I'm slowly doing, but dismissed them after a lot of effort(I wanted to try something different) because their 11sp shifters are designed differently than the 7-10(old) speed shifters. The shifters with shift cables routed under the tape use a thumb button like Campy.
nope- that's dumb to have 75% of your product line designed one way and 25% designed another.
They need to either utilize the 2 paddle shifting for all products or th thumb shifting for all products.
While they are at it, it's time to route cables under tape on 7-10 speed shifters. Its 2020, come on now.
Also, I bought 105 5800 shifters new on ebay for $40 less than I could find any Microshift 11sp shifters. It didnt matter where I looked- no Microshift 11sp shifters were close in price to the 105s.
That's absurd. They need to be competitively priced otherwise what's the appeal?
I really liked the 2x9 shifters from them. The distinct shift feeling was nice and the hood shape worked well. The dedicated 2 paddles for shifting is easy to adapt to as well(though I've never understood the issue some have with Shimano's shift paddle design).
