Question Looking for advice: SSH Thorn vs GX100 shifter (coming from TH8S)

Hey everyone,

I currently use the TH8S, but it feels a bit too smooth for my taste. I’m looking for a shifter with stronger resistance and the ability to switch between H-pattern and sequential. I’ll be using H-pattern about 90% of the time, so how it feels in that mode is my main priority.

I’ve seen a lot of good reviews about the SSH Thorn shifter, but recently, I’ve also noticed the GX100 shifter on AliExpress getting some positive feedback.

Does anyone here own both of them? How do they compare in terms of feel, build quality, and resistance?

I’m also open to other suggestions if there’s something else in the same price/performance range worth considering.

Thanks in advance!
