There really is no best shifter. It mostly depends on your preferance. Tri-Ax will give you more comfort and durability while not sacrificing performance. Pro 5.0 is more compact, if you like to bang through gears quickly. MGW has had so many great reviews as well. It just depends on what kind of feel you want to have. I don't think you'll be upset with anything you choose. I've got the Pro 5.0 and it's very nice.
