SRAM Thumbies

Miss thumb shifters? Converting a drop bar bike to flat bars? These easily transform bar-end (aka “barcon” or “TT”) SRAM shifters into thumb-shifters. The shifters are not included, but are readily available in 10 and 11-speed versions. These mounts are not compatible with “R2C” (Return To Center) SRAM shifters. Precision machined with pride in Chico, California.

Product Story

Thumbies bring back the thumb shifting of old, and we think they make shifting more precise and smoother. These feel much better in our opinion than trigger or twist shifters.

Thumbies have a hinged clamp for easy installation that fit all flat bars, MTB risers and city bars with a diameter of 22.2mm (equivalent to 7/8 inches). Diameter is measured at the end of the bar where grips and brake levers attach.
The clamp is raised up to give clearance for hydraulic brake levers and has a shifter mounting boss that fits SRAM 10/11-Speed Bar-End shifters. All necessary mounting hardware is included.

This bike is getting bonkers!✨ Stop by our booth at Made to see it in person, or head over to @oakridgetrailsalliance for a chance to make it yours!

Our friends @spurcycle just stopped by our booth t Our friends @spurcycle just stopped by our booth to install this sweet hand polished dinger 🔔 onto the #CascadeCougar. This bike just gets shinier and shinier! 🤩
We didn’t say the #CascadeCougar would be a “re-cr We didn’t say the #CascadeCougar would be a “re-creation” of Mr Paul’s old Salsa, we said it would be INSPIRED by it, and @blackcatbicycles was definitely inspired! This painstaking geometrically masked rainbow fade with chrome lettering was finished with a clearcoat and well, just WAIT until you see this thing dipped in polished parts! ✨🤩✨As for the last pic… we’ll take bad photoshop over A.I. any day of the week. 😂 Thanks for the photos @mybucketsgottaholeinit 📷
Our friends at @wolf_tooth_comp sweetened the pot Our friends at @wolf_tooth_comp sweetened the pot by sending over a pair of sweet Waveform pedals for the #CascadeCougar Oakridge Trails fundraiser project. These puppies come in two sizes, 9 different colors, and are 100% user serviceable. The question is… will we really have this bike built in time for the @made.bike show this weekend?!
It can be a little tricky building up a drop-bar b It can be a little tricky building up a drop-bar bike with super wide-range 1X mountain bike gearing using cable actuated disk brakes like our Klampers, but one solution is to throw a @ratiotechnology 12-speed adapter into a SRAM 11-speed “brifter”. Modrone was generous enough to send us this SICK Jab rear derailleur that’s configured specifically for the #CascadeCougar, with a barrel-adjuster and Ratio specific throw. These derailleurs are fully rebuildable, re-configurable, CNC machined, and feature adjustable linkage springs and clutches. Very badass, thanks @madronecycles!
