  • i was hoping to pay around £40. The aim is to do a flat bar conversion on a 10spd 105 groupset. My wife has very small hands and finds it uncomfortable to brake on the drops.

    Do you have brake levers as well?

  • Maybe cross top levers could help? Very cheap solution if she still comfy riding the bike otherwise

  • Funny enough, I bought the shifters, levers and flat bars for my GF who decided that she did not like the look of flat bars on a road bike.

    As @Hulsroy suggested, I ended up installing OS crosstop levers (about £15 delivered on eBay) and now she mostly rides on the flat section of her drops and doesn't change gears much.

    I will get the kit out of the attic this weekend and take some photos.
    I also have inner/outer cables.
