Will this work on a shimano 8 speed shifter?

Yes. I have bought a TREK 4400 for my wife in 2005. The bike was a 24 speed ( 3 x 8) with DEORE rear derraillheur. Years later I've upgraded this bike to 27 speed . I've only bought new set of shifters ( 3 x9 ) and a new cassete with 9 gears. I kept the same old DEORE rear derrailleur which is still in my wife's bike working perfectly. Few years ago, TREK has downgraded the 4400, replacing DEORE for ALIVIO line. I am not sure if TREK is still producing the 4400.

Yes it will. The pull ratio is not 1:1-- this has the same ratio as all older Shimano ders. The only problem you might have is if you run a slightly wider chain through it. I don't think it will jam up or anything crazy like that, but you might get a little rubbing on the cage as the chain deflection increases (i.e. while you're cross chained). Just run a 9-speed chain and you'll be completely okay. Again, not that the 8-speed chain is going to lead to a catastrophe. Shimano did change their pull ratio when they moved their mountain drive trains to 10-speed. This is a little annoying, but at least there are more modern 9-speed options available (10-speed road ders will still work on lower-speed mountain drivetrains, though. I'm running a 10-speed 105 der on a 7 speed drive train with an indexed shifter :) ).

Yes, it will, considering the activation/pull ratio in your shifter. Also, it has enough space to fit a 7.1mm chain (7-8 speed), not anymore than so. Just adjust the limits and indexing.

Dave, I'm not absolutely sure, but since the amount of movement is determined by the drum size of the shifters AND the pull ratio of the M592 is 1-to-1, it most likely will. At the (relatively) low cost of the M592, I'd give it a try. Just so you know, the M592 is the "Shadow" design which means that the cable comes in a bit from the outside and there is no cable adjuster on the derailleur itself. If you want a conventional rear entry with an adjuster built in, you want an RD-M591.

Yes, it will work you will just have to adjust the low and high stop screws accordingly

If by X0 Shifter you mean X0 Rear Derailleur, then I'd have to say maybe. They have the same number of teeth and work on the same number of speed ranges, but it's hard to tell if the cage screw (holds the pulleys in place and the cage halves together) holes are the same diameter between the Shimano and Sram parts. Not sure if that helps any.

As a direct replacement its unlikely you could get it to shift properly the 10 speed dyna sys derailleurs are only designed for use with 10 speed shifters. In my case (9speed) this required a new 10 speed cassette,chain and shifter. 8 speed should be the same unless you have an older thread on style rear hub. To me the clutch on the derailleur makes it worth it and you could lower the cost by using slx instead of xt on some/all of the components.

I'm using the barend shifters with my old 8 speed alivio rear and front derailleurs with 9 speed cassette, there won't be any issue if you are going to use 9-speed all the way, cassette, rear and front Derailleurs

I assume it would. It is a relatively inexpensive shifter, but easy to install. I would just make sure you have the right numbe ro fgears to match up with the shifter

although I can't guarantee it... it should fit it comes with about eight different adapters to fit just about any shifter hope this helps

It will work, you may need to change to a Shimano shifter and crank set to complete the package. Otherwise you will have issues when shifting up and down.

The Shimano A050 only has 7 speeds for the rear sprocket. There is no shifter for the front sprocket. I bought this for my beach cruiser which only has a single blade sprocket on the crank and a 7 speed in the back.

It only fits certain models of Shimano shifter handles. I don't recommend it because it breaks off under road vibration.

Since the bar end shifters are intended for 8-speed rear cassette you will need to find a compatable derailleur. I checked online and most everything is 9-10-or11 speed now. In the past I have had both Dura-Ace and Ultegra derailleurs by Shimano that worked great but they were 8-speed systems ant that was about 15 years ago. Not sure if the 10 or 9 speed will work or not. I would check with a good bike mechanic before buying just to be safe. I bought and older Specialized Warrior Sport that happened to have an 8-speed rear cassette (not sure of the brand of the derailleur) and I installed the bar end shifters and they work great and have made riding fun again.

Not sure. You could type "shifter cable" followed by your year make and model and it should come up with the correct part number. Then see if they have it on amazon.

According to the package it will work on 7 and 8 speed derailleur chains. It does not differentiate between companies. I carry it but haven't had to use it yet

I'm not sure but more than likely should, as long as your shift lever has the same thread size or you might need to get an adapter for the right size
865958
no this shifting system is meant for three speed manual conversions only in you are just looking for a shift lever and knob then this may work but would take alot of fabrication to get it to fit on your shift mechanism
2220921
It should, when I bought the shifter it came with many adapters for all thread sizes

No this is designed for shimano or sram cassettes only. This will work with 8 through 10 speed cassettes I think a 7 speed will work but needs a spacer.

So long as the derailleur is properly adjusted, yes it should work. The indexing is in the shifters themselves, not in the derailleur. This assumes you are using either a Shimano or a SRAM rear cassette. You may experience issues with a Campagnolo cassette.
