Short shifters, does it matter?

Does it matter what brand?? The only thing I've seen people talking about it to opt for the ones that have a bearing built in already. Anyone?

I have the focuz dual bend, but I would rather have the Skunk2 myself.
These are good too:
-Neuspeed
-DC sports

couldn't have said it better myself.

it's nice cause you can still get a lot of power behind your shifts, and it reduces the fatigue of shifting.

Is anyone using a single bend?? Do you like it??

I don't know about the skunk2, price is like 150+, DC is 100+, and I didn't see a neuspeed on ebay. I'm gonna check price grabber too. So to speak, is there anything wrong with a generic one? Anyone have a generic one?

search around, i got my Skunk2 for 125, it seems pricey but it's a quality piece, worth every penny.

I HAD a b&m single bend before the skunk2....it was too far away for me to really like it.
$125 is about average price of them.
You can pick up a stock integra one and it will be slightly shorter than what youve got now, and also cheap.
(Del sol is even shorter, but single bend)
