Get a MGW or a Hurst shortie.

It is pretty much personal pref. I have really only heard of one person not liking the Tri-Ax before, and they weren't evenpast the break in point. Maybe you need to look at how it is installed again, as you suggested.

I have the Hurst Competition Plus and it is poor. I actually prefer the tri-ax after the pro 5.0. good luck with whatever you do.

i installed my triax just fine. it shifts fine, just not what i was expecting. its choppy. you dont go from like 1st to 2nd smoothly. theres a pause in between. granted, this goes away when i'm really stepping onit, but i tend to shift slower when i'm just cruising.
