i jam my thumbs up and back into the tubes. this way i can point my fingers straight out in front to split the wind and attain an even more aero profile, and the usual fixed gear - zen - connectedness feeling through the drivetrain is multiplied ten fold because my thumbs become one with the tubing.

It's very straight forward. If you have any problems with the Shimano instructions, feel free to ask, and feel free to use photos to help describe your problem if need be. What model are you installing?

Campy ones are pretty self-evident.
Just mount them where you like, and string the cables making sure the tension on the shifters are all the way released.
Campy have their documents on their website, as well.

9-speed Ultegra on a 1994 Litespeed Catalyst. A very nice combination.
