Mounted a deore lx rapidfire to a chunky Tektro 340 brake lever using an m4 joining nut as the pivot, and simple serrated washer and part of an old alloy reflector bracket - whew!
Still a lot of bits to sort out. Got to get that bottom bracket out sometime , more urgently should true the rear crossmax, get a 9spd chain, possibly nicer rear mech (was there a dark blue one to match the old deore?) Wrap bars, purchase correct 26.6mm seatpost, find a non-bent adjuster and plastic cap thingy for the shifter, and fit fatter tyres... and decide what tyres to put on the 2nd wheelset.
Thats all.
