Heel Shifter
I am looking for an extended heel shifter that will give me a little extra room, but my goal is to get one that can be dropped down almost flush with the footboard or even below so that I don't have to pick up the heel of my boot to shift, or if so only slightly.
Can anyone offer any suggestions to accomplish this? Thanks and sorry if this issue has been previously covered in other threads.

Yup. Take it off and toss it your bags for when your toe shifter falls off. This is probably one of the best "value" mods you can do to your bike.

I replaced my original with Walter's Workshop extended heel shifter, extremly happy with the quality and the extra room on the floorboard, use it everytime I ride.

Takes maybe a beer to put it on. Heads up, you might have to loosen the toe shifter and push make sure its on as far as it will go (this will make sense when you do it) then slide your heel shifter on. You can position it as low or high as you want pretty much.
