IIRC, the Syncho DT shifters have a friction mode and an index mode. i bet these would work well.
I'm using a pair of C-Record DF (retrofriction) ****ers on my Klein Performance with a bosses on top of the DT. These bosses are sometimes called aero bosses. The C-Record DF shifters fit these bosses perfectly and work very well. I tried a pair of Spidel (Simplex) retrofriction shifters, but they just did not fit the bosses.
