Looking for New Ultegra or Dura Ace 9 Speed Shifters
Is it still possible to get a hold of new 9 speed Shimano? If so, I would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thank you.
Thank you.

why do not like the new ultegra? if it is simply because you think one grade up will make it better, i think it is a mistake. the new ultegra is good stuff.
i've seen ultegra 9 speed

I know you can still find new sti-r600 which are pretty much ultegra 9sp that you can shim for smaller hands.

I have been having a hard time finding new 9 speed, but if I'm doing the conversion correctly the link you sent would be about $400 which doesn't seem much of a savings over new 10 speed ultegra...

10 speed is probably the way to go if you are having to replace because of wear and tear. it's a natural moment to upgrade when the technology has already moved on.

It looks that way. I really thought I could find some 9 speed stuff a lot cheaper (without going used). I'll probably just stick with the 9 speed cassette for now and run it in the alternate position for the 10 speed shifter.

that's a good idea. do the upgrades gradually as and when things wear out.

I just pulled a pair of 9 Speed Dura Ace shifter off a bike that I had in storage. Maybe rode that bike 300 miles. Not a scratch or mark on them, they are essentially new. I was going to post them on Ebay next week. Used they go for good money, but to avoid hassle, let me know if you are interested.
