|   Anyone ever cut their Halfpipes? (x-post in Drivetrain) | SizzayYell

Then you can't afford to cut yours down. If you screw up one part, you're looking at either new shifters or parts anyway. It takes about an hour a shifter. Not only do you have to cut the length down on the base, you will have to cut the two grooves and square retaining holes. As for the grip, you will have to cut a line all the way around on the inside at the edge. Hope you're good with a Dremel? |
