Levo comp gear shifter

[ccrdave]

On the levo comp they fit a Gx one push one gear shifter but on all the models above they fit a normal rear shifter, anyone know why they do that.? And does anyone with the higher models have any problem with gear shifting?

Sounds a bit weird. I assumed they would all use the same / similar setup ?

They did this on the 2018 models, all the 2017 models have a normal shifter, by normal i mean you can change more than one gear at a time

1 shift works fine for me

1 shift works fine for me

yep works fine for me too I am just curios as to why they did it on just one model

I reckon its because SRAM introduced an EMTB specific shifter that limits drivetrain wear by only allowing a single shift at a time, and that being only the GX range that it’s currently available in.

I have both and it doesn’t make much difference either way to how I ride, or even bother me, you get used to it quickly.

To add to the above, I think that its the GX range that have it so anything that has that shifter (Comp Carbon etc) and anything ‘above’ in the line up has regular shifters.
