Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Hey gang - does anyone have a JTek shiftmate 1 laying around? I'm looking to get one and it looks like JTek closed their doors. Thought I had read that someone licensed the design but I can't find who. Any help would be great. Thanks.

It says they moved to the UK. Is it still there?

Several of their resellers list the product as not available and one says JTek stopped production do to health issues. No clue.

Will look tonight. I had one at one time and I think it's still in a box somewhere.

Even if someone has a spare one you need to specify what you need it for.
There is a range of models depending on what compatibility issue you are trying to resolve.
