    If you change to shimano, you will need a new rear mech.

    Most new shifters come with cables installed anyway though
  • If it's the right hand shifter then stick with SRAM or you will have to change the rear mech as well.
    Nothing unfriendly with SRAM, look for some X7s, nice upgrade from your SX4s.
