Has anyone had any experiences with these? they usually are relatively inexpensive, but does anyone have one? How do they stack up?

It's a piece of **** the way it comes, but I did some modifications to the springs and added some better grease and it works ok for a $25 shifter.

I've seen one that is a copy of a B&M. It is inferior because the pivot ball is plastic and wears out faster than a metal one would. You need to grease it alot. For the price, it works decent though. Make sure you use lock washers and locktite cause they always come loose.

but it is $25 + $25 shipping
