Not really after triggers though, the idea is to go simple and reliable. I’ve looked at old school xtr, and whilst lovely, is way too pricey for my needs. I just want a bar mounted indexed lever that isn’t shit.

At some point, you have to conclude that the ~£20 Shimano SL-R2000-R Claris trigger is the simple and reliable solution if you don't want to spend a pile of money on some boutique Rube Goldberg device.

The SunRace ones are decent enough, but in the end I swapped the levers for shimano ones and just use friction on a 9-speed casette. You'll get used to friction really fast in my experience.

Altus, Claris and apparently Tiagra in Shimano.
8 speed flat bar shifter is what you want to search for :)
