Hybrid Racing Maxim Performance Shift Knobs

Grabbing the gear lever in your car is a great feeling, except when your knob isn't comfortable. Hybrid Racing wanted to develop a knob that was not only lightweight and great-looking, but would also fit into the palm of your hand comfortably. After countless designs and 3-D prints later, engineers chose the overall shape based on the best ergonomic design from all of the concepts they'd developed so far.

Maxim Performance shift knobs are machined from a solid 6061 aluminum billet round bar in a 4-axis lathe. The surface is then treated with a proprietary sandblasting media to achieve a perfect surface finish. Next, they're treated to a 3-step anodizing process. Finally, Hybrid laser-etches the fitment size and logos with a YAG laser that evaporates the dye from the anodize—resulting in a crisp white logo that's subtly placed on the knob so not to detract from the fantastic finish. All of this combined results in an incredible fit and finish that is a joy to look at while maintaining the strength necessary for spirited driving. Maxim shift knobs are available in aluminum, titanium, or stainless steel; satin or brushed, in a variety of color options.
