5.0 out of 5 stars exact replacement for Falcon MLG-26i, December 6, 2009

This review is from: Sram MRX Comp Twister Mountain Bike Shifter - Rear (Misc.)

I have a 10 year old Huffy Verona 18 speed mountain bike, that originally had Falcon MLG-26i twist shifters, these falcon shifters are very common in low-end mountain bikes. The Falcon shifter cracked and was beyond repair. I searched for a twist shifter replacement locally, the only replacements i found where Shimano shifters that cost more than the old bike itself. The Sram MRX was an excellent replacement at a very low price.

The price on the Sram cannot be beat, and the shipping was ultra fast, it only took 4 days from the time I ordered to arrive. Installation is very easy, since the SRAM MRX already includes the cable. The instruction sheet is a little lacking, only having instructions on how to install the shifter on the handle, not how to adjust the derailleur. There are plenty of tutorials on-line on how to adjust once installed. The Sram shifter is much smoother than my old Falcon, it feels more like a friction shifter than an index one, except for the slight "click" that tells you that you have selected a gear. It is important to have a 2.5mm allen key available to install the shifter. I would also recommend buying a set of replacement cable sleeves, as the old ones could be rusted and will not allow the new cable to slip trough.

I had shifter with a broken piece and needed a replacement. I found this part to be an easy replacement without a serious upgrade in quality. This wasn't the exact replacement part but the next uptick in quality. It appears to have been almost the same part. I have never installed a shifter and found it quite a simple procedure.

Shifter is easy to install. A perfect replacement for my bike's original shifter that wore out. Shift points line up perfectly with my cluster gear. Works very well, but I wish the shifts were crisper.

I especially like Niagara Cycle Works. They have low prices, good service, and delivered more than I paid for!
