Fingertip DT shifters...
For coming off a crappy Ross, I thought these clamp-on downtube shifters seemed like a nice item. They've got a spring-loaded return thing going on, and also a type of push-button lock-out system...whose purpose is totally unknown to me!

That's interesting -- wonder if that's to help keep it from slipping and autoshifting once you've found the gear.
