I mean the handle or better the shaft. I know that UPR does the adjustable and as does MGW.

why bother buying a shifter handle unless you're buying a new shifter? and if you're buying a new shifter get the handle that goes with it. are they even interchangeable between different shifters? i've never heard of that.

i think for a while you had to purchase upr handles seperately but thats because they have (or had) 2 handles to choose from. but i thought the rest all came with them.

My triax is ok, but if I were to buy another shifter, it'd be an MGW.

im with you...
the Tri-ax is good....but it seems my shifts have been a bit more notchy than the stock feeling, since the install of the tri-ax..
Does a shifter do that? or is it just my tranny....maybe MGW will be more of a smooth shift???? i dunno...

To be specific on the shift handle stuff. I know that most come with the handle and looking at the MGW it doesn't make sence to find another one with the adjustability of the handle but I have noticed that some places do sell for example "The Trick Stick" and the UPR adjustable etc.

you gotta find out if the handles are interchangeable between shifters. i have no idea about that. and if you're looking for a shifter get the mgw and the handle the comes with it. if you have the money they also make one of the nicest shift *****.
