SHIMANO SHIFTERS

[xbike]

Hi Retrobike
I need help to choose the right shifters to use with Paul Thumbies pods and Shimano M900 group.

Would you recommend Shimano 8 speed ultegra bar end shifters SL-BS64-8 (all grey color) or SL-BS50 (black and grey) ?

I mean I would be sure that the left shifter can works with Triple crank.

If somebody knows ?
Thank you for your help

The road shifters usually have enough space to shift a triple up front.

Heres a set of 8 speed 600 Ultegra on a triple set up but using aftermarket bar-end shifter mounts instead of flat bar mounts. Same principle:

Re:

So both of them should be compatible.

But don't you think that SL-BS50 is better than SL-B64 ? or maybe changes only the color?

They are pretty much all the same.

except Dura-ace
