wonder if theres stuff like that for sram
Even SRAM have made Shimano compatible shifters, but there's no reason why anybody would waste their time making SRAM compatible DoubleTap levers because the SRAM 10-speed ones are routinely sold for £150 or less a set. There's no margin there for a different Chinaman making knock-offs to get ahead of the Chinaman making the actual SRAM ones, and if he did want to go into the knock-off market he'd be much more sensible to go for the Shimano since there are at least 10 times as many potential customers, and they are less likely to be fussy. SRAM drivers have generally chosen to make the leap, Shimano owners are more likely to have ended up with it because they didn't know any better.

Honestly? I saw some unbranded shim compatible stuff on eBay and my big nose started twitching and I thought, wonder if theres stuff like that for sram yet.
