Details

Only for use Shimano Nexus / Alfine 11 Speed Internal Gear Hubs

11 Speed STI drop-bar shifters suitable for internal gear hubs. Upgraded replacement for the Versa VRS11 shifters which are now no longer available.

Precicely replicates the Shimano cable travel to lead to slick shifting and longer hub life.

Must use inner cables with a 3.4mm head not 3.85mm (please see SJSC Item Number 49186).

ProsEasy to install, perfect shifting

I brought the levers to my house in the Philippines and changed my racing bike into internal shifting with Shimano Alfine 11. After more than 1000 kilometres including a long distance ride from Cordova to Samboan (165 km) I am more than happy with them. The function is brilliant under any condition, heat, rain, uphill, downhill. Definitely a great product!

Operationally Better Than Vrs-11

ConsStill the only option, Shimano wake up.

ProsSimple to install, smoother operation.

I had been resigned to the Vrs-11's clunky and spontaneous shifting, as I believed there was no other option.
Only ridden for the first time today since fitting, and the Microshift's are a noticeable improvement.

Smoother and less clunky, but it is early days. I will see how they perform when I am less conscience about downshifting under load- the Vrs-11's real weakness in my experience.

Installing was no problem - even though they do not come with instructions and I could not find any on Microshift's website. I defaulted to using Shimano Alfine Tech Docs as I usually do. However, it took some time to get the cable adjustment correct, the 184mm Shimano recommend put 6th gear one stop high by the yellow hub markers. I had to shorten 5mm or so, still have all 11 speeds, it works, so...

They are very basic in design and construction, and although they may end up doing a good job, they do not compare to cheaper SRAM and Shimano units I have.

Big Improvement Over Vrs-11

ProsSturdy. Matched to the hub. Ergonomically improved.

I bought this to replace a set of the Sussex VRS-11s. They eliminated the half-shifts due to the VRS-11 not matching the Alfine cable pull (which is not constant across the gears). The shifting is crisper and shorter in throw. The outward flare of the brake levers makes them easier to reach from the drops. An excellent product.

Great Product, That Works Much Better Than The Versa Vrs 11

Consexpensive

Prosjust works

With the Versa VRS 11 I had many problems. For example when you shifted down, you often ended up more than 1 gear below. I replaced the Versa VRS 11 with this product. This product seems to be much better than the Versa 11 and doesn't have these problems.

Hi, Does it come with brake cable and shifter cable?

By Wilmer Penaranda

15 Jul 2024

SJS Customer Service:

Hi
Thank you for your enquiry. This item is supplied with the gear cable required for the rear hub but it is not supplied any brake cables, these will need to be purchased as well. Something like our item 22607 would be suitable, you would need to purchase two of these.
Kind Regards. JP 15/07/24

Is it compatible with hydraulic disc brakes?

By Niels De Vries

07 Oct 2019

Is it compatible with hydraulic disc brakes? If not, do you have anything else which will do the job?

SJS Customer Service:

No, these are for mechanical brakes. We are not currently aware of any drop bar STI levers for hydraulic.

Thanks - 08/10/19

Is it compatible with my Koga F3 6.0?

By Niels De Vries

25 Sep 2019

And if so, could you provide me some information of how to install them?

Thanks in advance!

SJS Customer Service:

These fit any standard drop bars, they are not bike specific. As long as you have a Shimano Alfine/Nexus 11 they will work.

Simply fit them to the handlebar and cable them up.

Thanks - 30/09/19

Can i use it with every alfine11?

By Andy M.

27 Aug 2019

I have the versa 8 with the alfine sg-501, now that both, hub and shifter, are pretty wasted i need to upgrade to the inter11.
I am wondering if the shifter (art no. 39799) is competible to the SG-S7001-11 Centerlock.
Shimano changed at some time the direction of the gear cable mechanism. That's why iam asking.

Thanks Andy

SJS Customer Service:

Hi there,

You should be able to use these without an issue, however, as we have never done this we cannot say for certain I'm afraid.

Thanks.

Can this switch shift more than one gear at a time or do I have to pull the trigger 3 times if I want to change down 3 gears?

You should be able to change 1 or 2 gears at a time.

Thanks

Do you sell the Alfine 8 model

By Jean-Daniel

02 Nov 2017

Microshift has the SB-N080 model for Alfine 8
Can you have it ?

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

Unfortunately only the 11spd Alfine shifters are available from Microshift's UK distributor so this is all we're able to offer I'm afraid.

Thanks.

Hello, are these levers ok to drive mechanical disk brake calipers like Avid BB7 or Shimano BR CX 77

By vincent

22 Oct 2017

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

These levers pull the correct amount of cable for road type cable brakes so they will work fine with the CX77 brakes but will only work with the road specific BB7 brakes and not the MTB BB7 brakes.

Thanks.

Would These Work With Road Mechanical Disk Brakes?

By David

04 Mar 2017

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

As your brakes will use road brake cable pull they should be fine for use with these levers.

Thanks.
