Hi Everyone, Does anyone have experience with Silver 1 shifters mounted INSIDE with the thumb pods on the Albatross?
Yesterday, I think I fell out of love with cork grips on the Albatross. Over the years I've used the original channeled cork with Silver bar ends, then Misha's, then back to the originals that I channeled myself (which is a pain).... The cork stuff is just so hard! My palms are starting to get sore. It might be time for a change. I'm thinking about: Silver Thumb Pods with the Silver 1s using the INSIDE mount method ESI Extra Chunky or perhaps Oury Lock-Ons I might also try the Wave bar, but I have several other bikes set up similarly so... maybe that's just silly or maybe that's just the setup that works for me?! I've used Microshift thumbs and Suntour XCD mounted on the top of mtb bars. I'm just wondering if my thumbs are strong enough for the Silvers on the Albatross mounted inside. Can my thumbs really pull the lever "up" and still find a gear in friction mode? It seems difficult... Thanks for any thoughts!
