Buy Brake Levers and Shift Levers at Low Prices in the starbike.com Online Shop

Shift levers allow cyclists to switch between the different gears of the derailleur system. They are almost always mounted on the handlebars, with exceptions only found on time trial bikes. Shift levers for derailleur systems are sold in pairs: one for the front derailleur (which shifts between the different chainrings) and one for the rear derailleur.

Gear shifting is transmitted by a cable from the shift lever to the front or rear derailleur, which then tightens or loosens the cable.

There are two main types of shift levers: twist shifters and trigger shifters. Twist shifters are especially popular in the mountain bike sector due to their simplicity and intuitive operation.

The function of the brake lever is to control the bicycle brakes. Brake levers are always mounted on the handlebars. The braking system can be mechanical (brake cable) or hydraulic.

In our online shop, you'll find a wide selection of various brake and shift levers, for example, from companies like Campagnolo, Shimano, or SRAM.
