This is a friction shifter for a drop bar bicycle.
I got inspired by aibers design but found some issues with it, which is the reason i designed this. It is a full re-design, but i want to thank aiber for his great design and inspiration.

The focus when designing this was on functionality and printability.

After using this shifter for some time now i can say that it really holds up great. It doesnt break and is accessible from every position on the handlebar. 

I use it with a 12 speed cassette. It has more than enough cable pull. As i have another bicylce with a friction shifter but only 7 speeds, i can say that friction shifting gets nicer the more gears your cassette has.

I printed it in ABS, with 6 perimeters and 40% infill and vapour smoothed it with acetone so that it has a smoother touch.

For mounting it to the handlebar i cut out some metal band from a big hose clamp (see the pictures). I drilled a hole through the band and used a square nut behind the band to attach it with a bolt through the shifter on to the handlebar. It was a bit tricky and i think you are better of getting a shimano clamp band. 

I also attached the fusion360 file so you can easily do your modifications. Be sure to post a make if you do so ;) Enjoy!
