I have revised this so it uses a single neodymium magnet. I must have tried 20 different iterations until I found what I think is the perfect setup. The 8x5mm magnet has 1.9Kg of pull, which is perfect for the shifter. It stop false shifts, yet isn't hard to pull against.
You will need:
2 x 8x5mm Neyodymium Magnets
2 x M4x4x20mm Nuts and Nolts
NOTE: When you install it, make sure you slide it forward to take up the slack in the shifter movement. The shifter should just be touching the switch, so when the magnet lets go, a shift happens instantly. The magnet helps stop false shifts and gives a nice snappy shift, as found in the very expensive wheels.
Printed at 0.2 with 75% infill (you don't want any flex) and that seems to be the key.
Enjoy and as always, feedback is welcome!
