Description

For once the bike industry has given us something we've been asking for... A wide range group-set that you don't need to mortgage your house or sell your last kidney for.

Introducing Microshift's Advent- 1 x 9 group-set with a wide range cassette, clutch mech, and matching shifter. YAAASSSSS! Best thing of all this group-set will leave enough money in your pocket for a ride trip this weekend!

Don't let the tiny price tag of the Microshift Advent SL-M8195-R XPress 9 Speed Rear Shifter sway you. This no frills shifter does exactly what it's intended to do. Change gears when you push the paddles. Up, down. Down, up, up. Down, down down- it doesn't care so long as you're using it. Featuring sealed lever bearings to reduce the effort needed to depress the ergonomic paddles this 9-speed shifter is among the smoothest out there. Pair that smooth action with positive and audible feedback and you'll know you've just shifted gears. No mushy mashed potato lever feels here.


Who's this item for: Riders who already have the Advent cassette and derailleur and are looking to finish off the group-set.

Number of gears: 9. Yes! Only nine. Gear tuning just got easier and the cost of chains and cassettes just got cheaper.

Weight: About 130-grams including a shift cable.

Materials: Plastic body and paddles. An aluminium bar clamp and sealed bearings.

Mount style: This shifter is only available with a bar clamp. There are currently no options to pair this to your existing brakes or dropper post levers.

Pros: The sealed bearings make for a smooth, positive shift. Quality construction. 5! Thats right 5 gears can be shifted with a single, sweeping push of the large thumb paddle.

Cons: Some Shimano riders might miss the ability to shift down two gears with a single push of the smaller paddle. No option to mount to your brakes or dropper lever. Not compatible with SRAM or Shimano

    Smooth shifting.

    Great shifter as part of the micro shift 1x9 setup. Smooth, clear and responsive shifting. Shifter setup like shimano using index finger and thumb. The other 9 speed shifter code; M9295 is like SRAM shifting. Great for kids too - installed on my sons 24 mtb as part of upgrade.

    An honest shifter that does the job

    I installed this shifter as part of the whole Advent 9 spd groupset and while it is definitely not bad it is the weakest part of the system. Not because it's physically weak, which it's not, but because it's really the only part of the groupset which would benefit from improvements.

    The down sides are, no match maker clamp compatibilty with SRAM brakes (not a huge deal), it's push/pull rather than push/push. You do get used to it but push/push is definitely better on a mountain bike as you can leave your index finger on the brake lever as you should. Also the downshift lever is very long throw in comparison with SRAM. It can push through 3 gears at a time, but I would prefer the first gear to be shorter and more precise. On the plus side, it is very smooth and the downshift (pull) is short and quick.
