CNC precision machined from Stainless Steel billet and fully optimized for an improved gear change. This is NOT the usual aftermarket gear knob - this is a fully engineered solution to improve your overall driving experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeighing in at just over 500g, the stainless steel shift knob really does feel substantial. The \"notchy\" nature of the BMW gearboxes is significantly smoothed out with this weight through providing a greater pivot force, giving you an effortless and precise gear change every time. Prototyping revealed that with the shift knob too light - the notchiness would still be there, too heavy and gearchange would become labored and sloppy. With the weight optimized, we have met both criteria - smooth and swift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe standard shift knob sits at an awkward height - for both ergonomic and aesthetic purposes. Storm Motorwerks aim was to optimize the height for reduced throw and a more natural feel. Prototyping revealed that if it sat too low - users would grip the shifter with fingertips rather than the palm of the hand. This was more apparent with cars having center arm-rests. Iteration resulted in an optimum height, correcting both aesthetic and ergonomic problems of the standard position. Furthermore, by merging a 2\" sphere with a cone, every gear-change technique is accommodated for with an intuitive grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shift-knob is an ideal add-on to a factory or aftermarket short shift kit. Such kits increase the resistance during gearchange - amplifying the inherent notchiness but our shift knob allows you to have the benefits of your short shift kit without this extra resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in brushed stainless or PVD (Titanium Plated) for a bespoke dark gun metal grey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimized weight for smooth gear-changes: 1lb, 2.8oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShorter than stock height for reduced throw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimized shape for comfort and grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeel free to contact us at info@mlperformance.co.uk should you wish to double check!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eCompatibility Check\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo ensure the part(s) you have ordered fits your vehicle, we run a compatibility check prior to dispatch.
