Hello Cycling Enthusiasts,

I trust you're all enjoying your cycling adventures. I'm here with a question about my current MTB configuration and plans for a mullet setup. Here are the details:

• Shifting Lever: SL-M5100-R
• Rear Derailleur: RD-M5120-SGS
• Cassette Sprocket: CS-M5100-11 (11-51t)
• Chain: CN-HG601-11
• Hydraulic Brakes: Shimano MT410

Additionally, I'm planning to incorporate a drop bar into my next mullet setup.

I'm in the market for new shift levers and would greatly appreciate your recommendations on budget-friendly options. Specifically:

1. Compatibility with my existing rear derailleur, cassette, hydraulic brakes, and potential drop bar integration.
2. Suggestions for shifters that offer good performance without breaking the bank.
3. Any potential challenges or considerations I should be aware of, especially when transitioning to a drop bar.

I'm open to exploring choices from Sensah, Sram, Shimano, or Microshift. The goal is to find an option that balances performance, affordability, and integrates well with a drop bar.

If any of you have experience with similar setups or can provide insights into compatible, budget-friendly shift levers, and tips on using a drop bar in a mullet configuration, I would be grateful for your input.

Thank you all for your time and happy cycling!

Best regards,

Leisesturm
