• Any idea if there's a way to get ultegra 3x10 road shifters to work with an mtb xt/sram/middleburn drive train?

    I'm really hoping there's a work around like a problem solver widgit or another hack. I've just double taped the bars and can't be arsed to rip it all off again.

  • Sounds like a job for Jtek shiftmate - compatibility chart. SJS sell them and you can kind of double-check your choice in the comments/Q&A section.

    Good looking bike that!

  • Shimano MTB 9 speed mech works fine with Shimano 10 speed road shifters. Used this combo for years. There is a tiny, tiny difference in the mech travel but not enough to cause a problem. I have seen the recommendation that best set up for the centre of the cassette with the shifter on the right click, but I never bothered with that.

    I also used an MTB 9 and 10 speed front mech with the 3 x 10 shimano shifters and it worked fine. Last mech I used was M780 I think. I have found front MTB mechs to be quite forgiving when used with different levers

  • Hey, any more info on that bike? I've got the same frame but mine isn't converted to discs. Would love to know more about the bike/conversion.

    Also never thought of putting the rack on the back (I had it on the front but it does tend to foul the brake, so I took it off).

  • such a cool bike. i've been looking for a 54cm frameset for what feels like eons!

  • Whats going on with the bar bag setup? Can’t tell from the pic if it’s a normal rixen kaul or something you’ve modded/bodged?
