So got some Paul thumb shifter mounts so they are now on. They are very positive and solid but they are very exposed on the bar top. I'll stick with them for now but may ultimately try old XT ones instead which do sit down a lot further.
Got some tires too, went or some Schwalbe Marathon Almotions in 2.15". They don't look quite as good as the Supermotos but they clear well and still fit the bill. I went for these over Dths as on paper seemed more robust and more appropriate. They are well reviewed online also for a relatively new tire. Not ridden them yet to see.
