Best flat bar shifters imo, but also cheap
These are my favourite shifters for flat bar bikes in terms of ergonomics and ease of installation, while also being inexpensive. I far prefer them over grip shifters and trigger shifters, especially while wearing thick winter gloves. I also like how the lever position also tells you what gear your in, which works whether it's light or dark out. The only downside is they don't include a barrel adjuster.
