Abstract

In a gearshift device (38) of a manual transmission comprising at least one transmitting means (2) that is arranged for pivoting and axial displacement relative to the transmission, a low-friction transmission of gearshift movements is achieved by the inclusion of a rolling bearing (47) taking up thrust loads.
