Shift:R Tour for Pinion
The Shift:R Tour for Pinion brings trigger shifting to Pinion bikes. Incorporating our second generation of Shift:R technology, this shift system provides an alternative to the standard Pinion twist-shifter. The Shift:R Tour for Pinion is compatible with all C-line gearboxes.
The Shift:R Tour is perfectly suited for use on tours and your daily commute, as the shifting performance does not suffer even under wet conditions. Some design features are valuable upgrades to the twist shifter, such as the ability to customize the shift levers to your personal preference or the ability to shift and brake at the same time.
In the Shift:R shift box only the best and highest quality materials are used, such as the impact-resistant 6061 aluminium for the housing and the shift mechanism made of special stainless steel for optimum shift performance and a very long service life. The spring assembly is equipped with overload protection.

Your questions - Our answers
Yes, both levers are identical.
The Shift:R for Pinion is only compatible with C-Line gearboxes.
At present, this is not possible control due to the design of the P-line gearbox housing.
Yes.
This is caused by too much shift cable tension, causing one of the pawl mechanisms to remains in contact with the gears. Reduce the tension of the opposite (!) lever until the switching noise disappears. See instructions.
The cable tension is too high, reduce cable tension on both sides.
Depending on the pawl position, a bit of “backlash” can occur. That means, if you change shift direction then a small gap must be closed before shifting engages. If you can only shift one gear if you have not changed direction, increase the tension slightly. (see instructions)
Somtimes. Gearbox gears without a clutch cannot be shifted under high load, unlike derailleur systems. It is not necessary to completely stop un-weight your pedal stroke, only to reduce pressure.
Of course! Please note that in winter conditions the demands on the material and the possibility of corrosion are increased due to road salt. As with all components, this can results in increased maintenance and servicing costs.
Yes, that sound is the Shift:R Box ratchet returning into position for the next shift.
There is no reason not to use the Shift:R Tour on mountain bikes. That being said, the Shift:R Tour series is not necessarily designed for “advanced” or “hardcore” mountain biking in mind as the shifting behaviour in combination with the gearbox is not as defined, and the ability to shift under load is limited in comparison to a modern derailleur. Technically, however, there are no problems in this application.
We recommend checking the cables and lubricating the Shift:R Box annually with the maintenance of the gearbox or hub. Please refer to the care instructions in the product manual.
Commercially available shift cables can be used.
Absolutely not! Brake housing does not offer enough rigidity to allow sufficient shifting precision.
It is possible if you have experience with bicycle drivetrains and gearboxes. If in doubt, however, we always recommend going to a specialist.
