Re brake levers, there are some nice, light, and cheap tektro ones. I'll find a link.
The only issue with them is if you want to use MTB-style pod shifter things. Because there isnt loads of room underneath. Even then they are still usable, but it you were doing that then MTB ones would be better.
Re shifters: I'm getting my bike back this weekend and will be swapping the cheap 9 speed MTB trigger shifter out. They're tatty looking but work fine - bought them for cheap (£5-15 from memory) so I'll just sell them on for the same.
