So, had to start commuting on this quite regularly as my Space Horse lives at my mother in laws house full time at the moment. Wasn't feeling the wide bars and MTB triple for every day riding, so I rebuilt it as this.
Now set up as a 1x10 with drops. Parts I changed were:
Nitto RM106 bars
Salsa stem
TRP brake levers
Tektro CR720 cantis
SRAM s100 cranks
SRAM bar end shifter
SRAM Rival rear derailleur
Cheap 44t narrow wide chainring
SRAM 11-28 cassette
Mash SF topographic tape
Flite saddle (reissue)
Zefal Paragon mudguards
Commuted on it on Friday. Rode perfectly. The indexed bar end shifter worked so well, so did the 1x10 set up.
All the parts I took off will be going on a 90's Specialized Rockhopper as the kid carrier.
