what's so bad about the Versa shifters? I like the idea of being able to change gear without moving my hands much... and I'm inclined to go with them since I have them in hand, but will keep the bar-end option in mind if they're a pain. Would need new brake levers too in that case.
As you've got them already try them, but in my experience the shifting is sub standard and the brake levers are flexy. Yeah that's the one I had in mind...
