FAQ

Is this compatible with Shimano 8-speed MTB derailleurs as well as road?

Yes. Shimano 8-speed flat-bar shifters are broadly compatible with both MTB and road 8-speed rear derailleurs and cassettes, as cable pull is consistent across 8-speed Shimano rear components.

How is the ST-TX800 different from the ST-EF500 or ST-EF41?

The ST-TX800 uses the Tourney TX EZ-Fire Plus mechanism, which provides slightly more defined shift feedback than the basic EF41. The ST-EF500 is a slightly higher tier again. All three operate on the same EZ-Fire integrated brake/shift principle but with varying levels of shift refinement.

Are shift cables included?

Brake cables are included. Shift cables are not included and must be purchased separately.

Best For

Commuters and urban riders on flat-bar bikes running Shimano 8-speed drivetrains who want a complete integrated brake/shift lever set with practical EZ-Fire Plus trigger shifting.
