In a shifting system () for a vehicle transmission which comprises a shifting shaft (), at least one gear change hub () is movably placed in a transmission housing () upon the shifting shaft (). The shifting shaft () has at least one shifting pin () which with the shifting shaft () is rotatable around an axis of rotation () and which with the shifting shaft () is movable along the axis of rotation (). Depending on the position of rotation of the shifting shaft (), the shifting shaft () moves with the shifting pin () the gear change hub (). The shifting pin (), which upon shifting moves the selected gear change hub (), is placed outside the gear change hub () and engages in a bracket () connected with the gear change hub () and projects from the gear change hub (). On the outer surface, the gear change hub () has one slot () in which a locking device () is slidingly placed.
