▼HELP SECTION

Speed - the number of cogs at the back the right shifter is designed to be used with. This is important with indexed shifting but with friction shifters you can in theory run any shifters with any speed setup.

Shift System - friction shifters don't click into gear when you change, when they do click it's referred to as indexed shifting. For this to work correctly you must use the same shift system as your rear derailleur, if you're using friction levers you can mix and match.

Shifter Type - most have obvious names other than ‘brifters’ and ‘trigger’ shifters. These are brake levers and gear levers combined, brifters are for road drop handlebars and trigger shifters are designed to be used on flat bars, usually for mountain bikes.

Chainset Compatibility - the number of rings on the chainset the left shifter is capable of working with (providing the front derailleur is capable of the same).
