    I'd have to say I like the Pro 5.0 handle better

      Tim, there is a Kona handle some guy sells on ebay. Its formed to bring the shifter ball 3" closer to you without adding throw length. Alot of people have liked it and its only 10$

      I went drifting through the capitols of tin
      where men cant walk or freely talk
      and sons turn their fathers in

            I am running a triax shifter with a pro 5.0 handle and I liked that setup. Next thing I would do is cut a few threads off the handle if I were going to keep running it. Nick

                        I have the Tri Ax on a Pro 5.0. Nice and easy to reach without leaning forward at all. Stock handle was just too short. No flex or give in it.

                        I'd rate it a :3gears:

                              True, but I bought the Pro 5.0 first and then figured out I like the longer handle. The stock one is damn short.
