I ran the silver 9-speed Microshift thumb shifters on my MTB for two
seasons. The machining and quality of the clamp and levers is very nice and
they are a pleasure to look at. Mine were the index-only option and I
bought them from the cheapest Taiwanese source on Ebay. I also have heard
about
I'm almost certain the Sunrace indexed thumb shifters are Microshift
as well, I have one set of 9 speed indexed Microshift bar-ends and
they look exactly identical to the Sunrace shifters (and the IRDs as
well...).
But it's good of you to point this out because Sunrace gear is usually

I saw those, but I need indexing...
If I was going for something super inexpensive I would probably do
grip shifters.

Jim,
I have them on a recently purchased Surly Moonlander and love them. Later my
son borrowed the bike and that was the first thing he referenced upon returning
the bike. Take the leap I doubt you will be disappointed. The shifting is
precise and functions splendidly indexed.
Sincerely,
Ryan,
Do you have any pics of your setup?

the Microsoft shifters work great. every once in a while, though, they stop
shifting completely. all you have to do is remove and reinstall them and they

I find it weird how you still have to use two fingers on your left hand,

Those IRDs are rebranded Microshifts. They're identical.

My understanding is that the Microshifts are index-only (no friction option
as with the Shimano / Thumbie option), but that the proprietary ones that
come on Surlys (but are not sold separately) do have the friction option.
Can anyone confirm or deny all or part of this?
