shifter and derailer question here...

[ramrezz425]

I have this "radius" shifter that came with my ebike that I'm not really liking, is it required that I change out the derailer when I change out the shifter to the Shimano style shifter that I'm used to? TIA

you have few choices it being a 7 speed setup.
this may work for you https://www.amazon.com/SHIMANO-Altus-Right-7-Speed-SL-M315-7R/dp/B0833BY837

Thank you for the reply, but I was asking about the derailer as well, do you know if I have to change out the derailer when you change out the shifter? Thanks, David.

there are no real choices there. but no but I would ask a shop to make sure everything is compatible. with some searching yo can find the Shimano charts that show those too.

I handle this by going all Shimano, Upgrade both. A Shimano Quickfire trigger shifter works well and is arouns 20 bucks.The old one probably follows the SHimano standard if you want to keep it. If not, well 20 bucks,s
