Unofficial Prototype SRAM Electronic Shifter a Real Shocker!

You guys do realize cyclismas is a ‘satire’ website right?

Dan, you’re not serious, are you?

Yeah my bad, I posted too soon before reading the text (had already seen the original story a while back)… It wouldn’t be the first time a news outlet cites cyclismas to bring shocking news though.

I am sad for anyone that doesn’t immediately recognize this is satirical (fake).

SRAM uel? really.. and Ohm, a measure of electricty? Is it April 1st already? Is there a second set of wires leading to the riders saddle to enforce proper out of the saddle climbing technique?

Is it April already?

I came on a mission: to find readers with a sense of humor. Sadly, I soon went back to base empty handed.

Tyler, I thought the “shocker” was a thumb on the nub, the fore and index fingers in the ______ and the pinkie in the ________. Have I been mistaken all these years?

Would be a great post on April 1. Not sure it is good enough humor for January.

If you look at the picture the person is actually genius. He has managed to figure out a way to circumvent mild middle finger paralysis. This is in fact a tool to help him with a hand disability to be able to use SRAM shifters.

Although it is a spoof in the way it was written, someone should give the actual inventor a medal. The first reduced range of motion/disability STI workaround…

Put the thumb switch between your butt cheeks and this thing might be a solution for people with carpal tunnel problems.
