MicroSHIFT Announce Updates to Advent 9-speed Shifter and Cassette

PRESS RELEASE: MicroSHIFT

At MicroSHIFT, we don’t limit cool features to top-level products. So, it makes sense that we’d take the tech from our new Advent X group and trickle it down to our workhorse 9 speed Advent group.

This is what it looks like when you use MicroSHIFT.

The updated Advent shifter features precisely positioned triggers and light, positive action, all of which gives you a high end fit and feel at the tip of your thumb. And the addition of a silicone traction pad keeps you shifting no matter how sloppy the conditions. It’s a cool shifter.

Wide range is king, so of course we upped the ante on the Advent 9 speed cassette too. Sure, we could have done a 54T large cog, but in the interest of common decency we kept it to a very reasonable 11-46T range: wide enough to be useful, but not so wide that it compromises shifting performance.

Will the new cassette make you climb this well? Only one way to find out.

Whether you want options for an existing Advent group or you’re going for an all-new build, these product updates are designed to make your bike at least as trail-worthy as you are, if not more so.
