TRANSLUCENT FINISH
The translucent finish is achieved thru a meticulous powder coating process which includes multiple stages of careful hand work. The shift knobs are brush finished by hand to create a consistent radial grain. To achieve the translucent effect, we apply a coat of electrostatically charged clear powder that is tinted to our desired color. Then the shift knob is precisely baked at a specific temperature to create a super smooth, durable and translucent finish!
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.
