Seems pointless unless you are a pro.

It might seem that way, but a lot of guys try it and like it. However, it's difficult to go back to a "regular" bike after you've been riding one with GP shift for a long time. Just ask DLIT. |

and it keeps people from riding off with your bike... just ask Trip... though they do end up hiding it in the bushes...

I use it, I like it. It's good for track because when you are upshifting out of a corner it is much easier to press down than reach under and pull up. Especially in a left turn where you might not have the clearance to reach under.
