choices seem to be:
1. dura-ace bar-cons mounted to Pauls thumb brackets (or rivendel/VO cheaper alternatives)
2. dura-ace DT shifters mounted to Pauls thumb brackets (or rivendel/VO cheaper alternatives)
3. sunrace M96 new thumb shifters (which seem to be pretty much equivalent to the above in terms of ergonomics - they are essentially bar-cons mounted to brackets)
4. microshift A90s new thumb shifters (if I can still find a set - they seem to be hard to come by now, whereas 10s can be obtained easily. Kinda similar to the sunrace option in that they are bar-cons on brackets but are a lot more spendy and probably a bit nicer in terms of snickety click feel, but have heard some negative reviews regarding their ability to stay torqued down properly)
sunrace are definitely the most economical option, probably followed by the dura-ace route (HIGHLY dependant on finding brackets at a decent price - Paul's ones are of course, ludicrously expensive), with the microshift ones ironically ending up as the likely most expensive option
any thoughts - or ideally actual experience using any of these - to share?
