I was wondering how difficult it would be to convert the 3 Cim BallShifters our team ordered so it would have a neutral gear, or if there is a better way to accomplish the same task, that wouldn't require taking apart our gearboxes?
Did you order 3 cim ball shifters just for this task? Seems kinda overkill to me.
