Im trying to upgrade my sons bike from shimano revo grip shifter?

SJS Customer Service:

Sadly no, as Alfine shifters have different cable pull to normal 8-speed shifters.

Does this facilitate 'standard' shifting pattern #2

By John

Sorry about the question...Is a thumb press changing to an 'easier' gear and finger press to a harder one?

SJS Customer Service:

tumb is shifting up into easier gears, and finger pull into lower gears.

Does this facilitate 'standard' shifting pattern?

By John

Just wondering if this changes gears in the same direction as a standard derailleur or is it reversed - Hoping its thumb press to advance the gearing and finger to gear down. I am planning to use on a Nexus 8

SJS Customer Service:

Yes, so thumb press to go up and finger pull to go down

Could this be used with a 7 speed biopace setup and match the gear spacings? Thanks.

SJS Customer Service:

it would depend on the front mech, 7 and 8 speed spacing is as near as matters identical, you'd need a 7 or 8s MTN front mech such as Shimano Altus FD-M310 8 Speed Conventional Swing Front Derailleur - Multi 28.6/31.8/34.9mm (SJS Cycles part number : 37286) RT

SJS Customer Service:

Hi there,

You should be able to fit this on the flat part of the bar if it has a 22mm diameter.

Thanks.
