is the main picture the actual product, as it look like the one i need but my shifters are 5500

Yes, the product is simply the snap on plastic cover as shown. Don't know if 5500 series is the same design.
1253696
The name plates for the 5500 and 5600 series should be interchangeable. If the name plate you currently have has the 'Flight Deck Shimano 105' labelling on it, it is the correct one.

picture is the actual product, just a name plate and screw at the top. It has to fit precisely at the gap.
1253698
Yes. But I think it was the 5600 series I bought them for though. As they were for a friend and I cant remember for sure.
1253699
I believe you need the 5500 shifter covers, as I ordered the 5600 ones and they did not fit.

No they will no you need the combination shifter and brake I have one I am selling if you want it johnfarris@comcast.net

Should be no problem, since they are simple friction shifters with no stops. Both shifters are basically exactly the same. I am currently using them on a 7 speed rear, changed from a 5 with no issues.

It's been some time since I replaced the shifters, but I believe you will use the bike's old cable housings and just thread the new cables through them. The cables come installed in the shifter mechanism and are plenty long so you will need to trim them once they are installed and secured in the derailleurs. It's a pretty easy installation unless the cable housing is corroded or damaged. Good luck.

Answer is.... NO. This really annoyed me that they come as a single plate and screw but, some people might need to fix jusr one plate. This replacement plate makes the shifters look so much better than the default ones that come on the 5600s. Completed the look of my custom top to bottom bike at the time. They are interchangeable as you might imagine. $20 for 2 is around the going rate....probably costs shimano $2 for the pair...but the look is much better in all black. The 5700s are all black. Hope that answers your questoin. :)

If the part # you order is the GP-SW1500-12 that's what you would get. Sometimes in some listings they use a standard picture.

Yeah, i got both. I bought shimano shifter 2 times and i suspect you always get both. Don't know if they make singles.

If your buying the rack then yes it will fit but the picture is showing a lack shift set so I dunno what your actually purchasing here

That I can not say for sure. If you remover your stock shifter and see a rectangular piece of metal 1/8-1/4" by 3/8" (?) then it should. It IS a cheap item. hope it helps

My giant has exposed cables with housings at each end. The shifters came with approximately 2 feet of housing for each cable. I had no problem installing the shifters on my bike. But I screwed up because I changed my brakes afterwards and had to use the rear cable on the front and buy a new cable for the rear(the new brakes needed slightly longer cables) l had already cut the cables to fit the original brakes(doh!!!) Unless you need housings from shifter to derailer(fully inclosed)you will have more than enough to install these. I think you'll be pleased with these if you buy them.

No dude You buy shifter pegs separately. You can take your old ones off but its better to buy new ones.

it works OK. in my situation, I'm probably better off getting the twist style shifter. I have a Specialized HR.

Agree with Jeff, The derrailleur / shifter cable was included but no brake cable or housings. New product packaging may have changed since then as it 's been awhile. I 'd plan on having the brake pieces available if your doing the installation yourself. If not, Your local bike shop will sort it out for you. Hope that helps. Mike

Yes it is. Been awhile since I put it on, but as I recall it was 7/8th except the center which is 1 inch. I put it on a mountain bike frame and wanted to use the grip shifters on it. The grip shifters are for 7/8th inch ends. So that should work for you.

Yes it is, and will not work. You can use a xt 9 speed derailleur for your intended purpose. Hope this helps.

No I believe you can't. You need to use shifters with the same gear ratio that your bike is configured with in order for them to work properly

not anymore. I complained to the seller and they sent me the upgraded shimano shifters that vilano.com shows, and also a cheap adjustable stem that was put together soo tight that no tool could loosen it to adjust the height.
