I noticed in the latest issue of WMB the review of the Canyon Lux shows it speced with Sram X9 10 speed gripshifts.
Anyone go any info on availability and price? The gripshifts not the bike. Googled in but nowt came up!

    You didn't make much of an effort to google it did you? £40 per shifter and loads of places sell them.

    Not the 10 speed ones, only aftermarket 10 speed ones are XX and X.0. IMO not as nice as the 9 speed ones (always liked X.0, now got XX1 11 speed Grip Shift), as you can't do the 'trimming' on the front mech any more. The 10/11 speed ones feel a bit plasticky too, ironic considering they're far more expensive.

    Thanks for that njee20. Probably stick to XO 9 speed which plenty of places are selling at about £50 a pair. Makes your £40 per shifter for X9 look a little sick RockmonkeySC. "You didn't make much of an effort to google it did you?"
