kad quick shift

KAD New Improved quickstick gear lever:

The original type, devised by KAD in 1991, has been copied verbatim by so many other companies that we have lost count, we therefore decided it was about time to raise the standards and this has resulted in the new improved KAD Quickstick.

The new improved type is a redesign of the original KAD stick incorporating many detail changes.

  • Reverse is now selected by lifting a collar beneath the gear knob
  • Now supplied with an alloy gear knob
  • Larger pivot ball and slot for better longevity and reliability
  • Does not require any additional parts: no donor standard gear stick required
  • Even smoother gear change
  • Fits all rod change gearboxes
