I love my Steeda to death....but I also like my dad's MGW- they are both good but the MGW's quality is second to none!

What no one here has mentioned is that third gear is spring loaded which almost guarantees you wil hit third gear everytime. I have the Steeds Tri-ax and I love it. I have never used the MGW so I will not say anything good or bad about it. I just like my steeda. I know both shifters are spring loaded for third gear, it's not the shortness of the throw that makes it easy to hit 3rd, just the spring mechanism when shifting from 2nd to 3rd.

I've driven GT's with Tri-ax, Pro 5.0 and B&M.

I chose the MGW in my Cobra and I'd switch to an automatic before I used any other shifter.
