Aluminum doesn't bend (like steel) - it breaks!98V6 K.I.T.T. said:same shifter only 5.0 made from steel as tri-ax is aluminum, but unless your the hulk and going to break something the steel is not a big deal, I've never heard of someone bending a steeda handle ever. I went with the tri-ax.
Thanks for saving me the typing - same experience, same result here. PRO50!!!5spd GT said:I have tried 4 different shifters and actually own/ed both the Tri-ax and Pro 5.0...I prefer the Pro 5.0. It gets rid of the factory style shifter handle bend...and feels stouter.
They are both great shifters though...
