So, in the words of my 5 year old son, "Look at me! See what I can do!"
First up, Cara's little "Touring/rough road/no toe overlap/it has to handle like a road bike" bike.
It has an eclectic selection of mtb and road parts that work well together....with a little effort.
Like the mtb shifters on road bars. This is the third bike I've set up like this and it works great- plus, it gives you more options for different brake levers.
Shifts easily, rides smoothly, and gains decent speed on the open road! I love it and it looks sharp, too. Thanks for spending your summer on this project. Cara
ReplyDeleteI'm really curious...
ReplyDeleteHow did you manage to put mtb shifters on road bars ? Did you file the inside of the shifter's clamp ?
