What is 'Twist Shift' on the small? How does it differ from non twist shift?

Manuel, there is a type of bike whose handlebars incorporate a twist shift on the handle bars. Most modern mountain bikes have regular shifters that are separate from (a little in front of) the bar, although some (older ones) have them right on the bar. The "small" and the "large" Ergon G3 grips are the same length, so the principle would be the same for both in regards to compatibility with twist shifts. Paul

These grips are not for a twist shift bike. These grips will not shift your bike. Call a bike shop in your area for the exact grip you need. Hope this helps

Might be referring to Grip Shift where the inner 1 in or so of the grip is actually your shifter. You just rotate that inner 'Twist Shift" to change gears. The small must have a shorter (width) grip to accommodate the shift ring without hanging off the end of the bars. Just guessing.

you "press" shift and then 2 (for @). Once you touch the shift button, the key stay pressed until you press the next key. So it's not necesary to press the two keys at once, like on "real" keyboards

For me, the size out of the box was the smallest it would go. Once extended out to a longer size - simply push back together. At least that's how mine works. I never had to twist anything.

You twist the bezel that holds the button. I was confused on it for a few minutes, too. The part that twists off is very small, just the tail end of the flashlight.

Hi Laura, Sorry for the delay. There is a nut that is at the base of the old gear shift or you should be able to twist off the old one.

I am on my second one and I have never had to do any shifting or rocking. Perhaps your item is too high for the Lids Off opener. What you are doing is not normal. You only raise the top up high enough to get the item setting in place and push the gray start button and it does the rest.

The twist style resistance knob can be cranked down so that the cranks barely move. The hand positioning should'nt make a difference. A good machine.

It's easiest to twist apart. If you've tried that and it doesn't work, yours may be defective. Good luck!

Perfectly. I've never had any "shifting" in either of the two samples that I have.

I am not familiar with the twist, but I do love my Cat and Dog. It works well, but i will say it is a little heavy, but turns easily. I have had mine for 1.5 years and it's still going strong!

Stick something small down toward the tip and flip it up. Not sure why they designed it that way.

The loop portion has 1/2 a twist. Used them once already and they worked great.

I repaired a bike for someone else and used this shifter so it has been a while but I am pretty sure that there are no clicks at all, the arrow points to approximate place for gear if you adjust one gear the rest are close so you just twist it until it goes into gear and move the shifter until there is no noise

The one I got from this page (new from Another Deal Site, fulfilled by Amazon) was a DA L, the budget model without the Quick Shift, even though the ad says otherwise. Not cool. I was really glad for Amazon's no hassle return policy.

It is shift linkage, don't buy it! Mine snapped in half after only two rides. Just an FYI. poor design.

They do have these for twist shifters also. The shorter version will probably work but check with the seller too.

The end where the bit goes adjusts to set the amount of torque. You just click it to the torque you want. The manual explains which setting is for what purpose also.
