If you find it hard to use trigger shifters, here are two other
options, I've provided solution for past customers.
Gripshift, no not everyones favorite but could be a compromise. Usually
the hands larger grip surface and strength makes for a lower shift
pressure.
Thumbshifters, costly but a great answer - use your whole hand or the
butt of your palm
who/how; ask your bike shop about Pauls Components for the shifter
mounts and use shimano bar end shifters. Malvern Bicycles Plus or
Shifterbikes? (The bonus could be 10spd)
