Do you have to double shift to move one gear? That really shouldn't be working!

Well guys managed to get out on the bike this arvo and all was sweet for 10 mins until i had to start double clicking up down left right and so on,not a happy ride hahahaha
so you are all bang on, they don't work together very well..........
i'm gonna get a new sram shifter now but have to get the cheapest one because i'm skint.

Let me double check the condition, but i have a spare SRAM shifter at home that was kindly donated to me by Tim on here. Its been replaced with a new one, so I'm sure he won't mind it being passed on help someone else.

Well I've checked and it works fine - an X7 trigger. If you need it, it's yours.
