What is a Shifter?

Bicycle shifters play a crucial role in changing gears on your bike's transmission. Suited for various types of use such as urban cycling, mountain biking, racing, road cycling, or electric biking, it's crucial to choose the appropriate shifter based on your bike. These levers are part of the transmission components and influence aspects like weight, materials used, number of speeds, and parts durability.

Explore our collection of shifters designed for both road and off-road biking.

What is the Purpose of Bicycle Shifters?

Mounted on the handlebars, these mechanical parts allow cyclists to shift between different gears, thus facilitating their rides. Each gear corresponds to the ratio between the number of teeth on the chainring and the cog. The left shifter manages the front derailleur and chainring, while the right shifter controls the rear cassette and rear derailleur. Shifters are present on most bikes, whether they are road bikes, mountain bikes, hybrids, gravel bikes, cyclocross bikes, electric bikes, etc. However, single-speed bikes like Fixies, Singlespeeds, track bikes, and BMX bikes are not equipped with them.
