Better send me the entire shifters. You can't be too safe.

And thus they're more ergonomic on the bars the OP has. Install old 8sp style and you dont get that flat transition from bar to lever. I guess the shop was right, they just didnt explain it.

Reminds me of when I worked for a hardware store and a regular came in and noticed our two energetic trainees at the practice register. He asked where the elbow grease was and they merrily took out their handy guide and after a few moments announced that lubricants were in aisle 16. I was laughing uncontrollably as he walked past me and said "Glad I didn't ask for a left-handed monkey wrench".

The first "not recommended" picture is indicating the bars being rolled up too far (ie, the bottom of he bar should moved to be more horizontal to < 5').
The second "not recommended" is indicating the brake stalks being too far down the bar (ie, they need to be moved up so that the tips of the levers is 3-5 cm higher like in the "recommended" picture).
I think the ~0' indication at the right on the second "not recommended" is a mistake: it should be ~ 0 cm (to the 3-5cm in the "recommended" picture).
Yes, except the angle at the right of the second "not recommended" is, I believe, a mistake (it should be ~ 0 cm to correspond to the 3-5cm in the "recommended" picture).
