Default Short shifters, and bends

Looking to buy a Skunk2 short shifter, and am having trouble finding information about the differences between single and dual bend shifters. Can anyone give some info about this topic?

1 bend = 90-93
2 bends = 94-01

The dual bend is closer to the factory postion. I know from experience that the dual bend is the way to go.

I agree, dual bend feels more comfortable, as it positions the shifter closer to you.

Someone offered me $55 which is fair, but he will not have the money for some time. I was hoping to get rid of the shifter soon as I could use some extra cash for Xmas shopping.

I'd ship anywhere in the US and pay for shipping.
