SRAM shifter clamp for flat bar MTB shifters

cults3d

I'm absolutely enthralled by SRAM's MTB drivetrains, particularly their 1x11 speed original and the new 1x12 Eagle drivetrains. Unfortunately, SRAM's history with brakes hasn't been stellar, so I run Shimano, Formula, or Magura brakes instead. To accommodate this setup, a clamp is required to mount the shifter - and that's exactly what this clamp does. I've listed genaro144's shifter clamp as a reference even though it was created from scratch. I've used their original design on multiple occasions and found it works incredibly well, but it demands a bit of attention to print correctly, and I wanted to try my hand at designing something new that addresses some minor issues I had with the original. My version boasts a thinner band which has thus far proven strong enough during testing, and it also makes it easier to install this clamp on bars without having to remove the grips. I've also included a 31.8mm clamp version in case you want to mount a SRAM flat bar shifter near the center of road bars. As usual, the F3D file is included if you'd like to experiment with something entirely different! As you can see, this is undoubtedly a weight-weenie approved part, shaving off a whole 4.3 grams! (0.15oz or 0.0093lb) Every little bit counts, right? Update: I designed the band to be slim (1.6mm == 4 shells on a typical FDM printer with 0.4mm nozzle) so that it would be flexible enough to install or remove without having to remove the grip. In my testing with various materials, this proved more than sufficient - but if you feel you need something stronger, riotstudios has posted a remix which accomplishes exactly that.
