SRAM X.5 shifters are an essential part of an X.5 group that, with the addition of a 2x10 option, 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.
