At first glance you might think these are hand grips for a BMX bike or motorcycle. Â But in actuality, this is a new limited edition product from Mishimoto designed to give enthusiasts something very different. Â The designer of this knob is an avid mountain biker so no suprise when he came up with this design, but it has function too! Â Lets see what Mishimoto said…
“This piece is also the heaviest of our new set of shift knobs, weighing in at 476 grams. If a heavy, weighted shift knob is your thing, this might be the one for you.  Once we tested the “feel factor†for this piece and wrapped up the design work for the different components and features, a few final prototypes were created.  The base provides the connection point with the shift lever.  The knob on the right includes one of our universal thread adapters, which will enable fitment for a variety of vehicle makes and models.  This shift knob is made from three separate components, which can be taken apart for further customization. Below is a cutaway showing the internal features.  The components on the left and right are constructed from CNC-machined aluminum. The center sleeve that serves as the grip is made from an engineered thermoplastic.”
