Consider going to your local mechanic with your bike. Tell him/her what you'll use it for, the level of quality you want, maybe the amount of money you have to spend, and let him/her pick it and install it. I like to do a lot of wrenching myself, but I also like the security of knowing the part was chosen and installed by someone who knows what he's doing.
