microSHIFT Shifters Editorial Review
MicroSHIFT's Acolyte Right Trigger Shifter is an affordable option for those using a 1x8 speed Acolyte derailleur. However, one issue that has been noted is that the shifter cable is longer than necessary, causing some users to have difficulty installing and tensioning the derailleur. Unlike the Advent X model, this shifter does not have a rubber grip option for the lower/large shift lever. Unfortunately, some users have had issues with gears 1 and 2 not working properly, which seems to be an indexing issue rather than a cable issue. Despite this, there are limited options for a shifter compatible with the Acolyte derailleur, leaving some users feeling like they have to deal with it. While the shifter may feel bulky and clunky compared to more expensive options, users can apply oil to the inside to help with sticking. Overall, this product may prove suitable for those on a budget, but it has its limitations.
