At least, that’s what the label says 😉 . It could just be old-fashioned, or a light tourer, or a heavy CX, or maybe just a ‘bike’
Whatever, It’ll be used for non techy bridleway, The Ridgeway and some road sections largely in the Chilterns.
Anyone want to help me with advice on tyres? (700C, max 40mm)
And a few questions about drivetrain and brakes (discs).
I have some old tektro cable calipers – but these won’t work with a road lever – right?
9 speed MTB and road derailleurs are interchangeable – but 10spd and beyond not?
MTB chainsets run a different chainline. Am I likely to be able to use a triple crankset (RaceFace Ride) with a single ring (NW) and find an acceptable chainline?
I’m hoping a cheap set of Sora / Tiagra / 105 shifters from eBay will work with a Deore 9 spd mech and cassette I already have. Then it’s just some cheap road calipers required
Any other experience or advice?
