TEXTURE FINISH
The texture finish is achieved through a meticulous powder coating process which includes multiple stages of careful hand work. The shift knobs come off our cnc machines with a super smooth surface finish, then they are gently glass beaded to promote powder coating adhesion. A coat of electrostatically charged powder is applied, then baked to cure the powder which creates a subtle textured finish for a confident shifting grip.
SHIFT GATE ENGRAVING
With or without? All depends on your personal preference. Our signature shift gate engraving was designed to be graphically clean while giving your shift knob a unique aesthetic.
The engraving is cnc machined into the shift knob using a small .0625" solid carbide ball end mill.
How Does It Work?
With the weight in all the right places, Rondure redefines your shifting experience through the look and feel of how you shift into gear. You will experience smoother and faster shifts!
How? Weight in motion directly relates to how an object will react to an opposing force. In this case, the opposing force is the gate pattern and counter springs that are connected to your shift arm that tell you the shift pattern of your car. The difference felt when shifting into the next gear requires far less effort due to the additional momentum created by the increased mass.
Will It Fit My Hand?
We specifically designed the Rondure to fit medium to x-large size hands.

SHIFTING POSITIONS
The Rondure was designed to compliment several shifting positions including side arm, full overhand and overhand shifting positions. The gently arched side profile is designed for the side arm shifting position. The profile fits the natural curvature of your hand and fingers as they wrap around the shift knob allowing you dictate direction and movement. The domed top surface is intended to compliment overhand shifting, giving you an ideal shape for confident shifting.
DESIGN DRIVEN
We believe in the power of the design process to create incredible products. Every shift knob start it's life as an idea that is translated into countless ideation sketches where form and details evolve. We take those sketches and further develop them in solid modeling software to define the form and ergonomics of the shift knob. The goal of this process is to perfect the balance between form and function to create an unparallelled product and brand experience.
Crafted By Us
For the integrity and craftsmanship of our products, we do our manufacturing in house. We are proud to get our hands dirty crafting the very products we create.

Pricey but you get what you pay for
So i got the Black Textured Rondure because i was getting the Raceseng Reverse Lockout and i wanted them to match. I was pretty sceptical with how much they are but i said why not if i dont like it ill return it. From the moment you get it in the mail you can tell they want you to know its quality. The packaging is great and everything is very well put together. The knob feels completely different than stock. You put less force into changing gears because of the weight differece and the textured finish feels great. Leaves no smudges or finger prints and install is super easy if you go watch their video. Overall its is pricey but if you want a high quality product in your car then your not gona find a better made product than Racesengs shift knobs. Highly recommend.
