Also, you can get brand new 9sp bar cons from Rivendell at $140, and elsewhere
for a few dollars less. Some people run bar cons on their down tube shifter
bosses, and they work fine.
FYI, Grant tells me that he thinks Shimano has stopped making the 9sp bar-end
shifters "after 25 or 26 years of making them". Get 'em while you can, and
expect the price to get eye-watering.
And, yes, you can run them on the down tube. Interesting bit of RBW history ...
I pointed this out to Grant a long time ago, and that the opposite was true,
that downtube shifters could be mounted on Shimano bar-end pods. And thus were
born the Silver 1 bar-end shifters.
