Raceseng | All Weight. No Heat. Introducing Sphereology!

ONE CORE. MANY COVERS.
As the Hybrid Series product line expands, customers keep their core and purchase other interchangeable covers of different materials and colors.




HOW DOES IT WORK?
The idea is simple and execution is flawless. The cover simply threads on and off the core allowing you to change the style of your shift knob in seconds.




SMOOTHER SHIFTING!
With the weight in all the right places, Sphereology redefines your shifting experience through the look and feel of how you shift into gear. You will experience smoother and faster shifts!




SPECS
470 Grams | 66.5mm Tall | 54mm Diameter




OVERHAND SHIFTING POSITION
The cover of the Sphereology was designed with the utmost of ergonomics in mind. The ball shape is ideal for an overhand or slightly side arm shifting position. The ergonomic driven design of the cover is suited for a variety of hand sizes. Big or small, it will fit them all.




SPHERE COVER + OLOGY CORE
The Sphereology is comprised of a Sphere cover with an Ology core. The Sphere cover is cnc machined from Delrin® which acts as a cooling insulator, hot shift knobs are a thing of the past! The Ology core is cnc machined from 303 stainless steel and features an exposed bottom profile.

Yes, we've powder coated the cores for some other customers. It needs to be treated as a custom powder coating job because we need to mask sections of the core off so the cover can still thread on.

Send me an email (info@raceseng.com) and I can show you the color options and price.

Thanks!

Applaud this.
Even though there may have been SIMILAR ideas, this is pretty unique and the quality of Raceseng can't be beat.

Are you still working on the leather cover for the hybrid core that you posted on the shift knob thread?

How does the size compare to the stock knob? It looks slightly larger diameter wise.

I had the Slammer and liked the smoother shifts and loved the metal clunk sound when lifting the Raceseng reverse lockout. But I then realized my hand enjoyed the stock shift knob every other week for its size, grip and control. This one looks like it'll fit the bill but I'm gonna hold out for a Raceseng alcantara Ology knob :P
