SRAM X.5 shifters are an essential part of an X.5 group that has benefitted from the trickle down of basically all the key features of the entire SRAM line. They strive to keep the look and feel high-end on an affordably entry-level package with alloy main cable pull levers and main body. The shifting is at its core much the same as with the higher level shifters, save for losing a half step on quickness and requiring a touch more pressure to actuate the levers. A pretty small price to pay considering how high SRAM's upper end sets the bar if you ask us, making X.5 a good match for recreational off roaders and flat bar commuters with no need for top-of-the-line performance.
