I’ll just bang an 8 speed freewheel on it
I’ve done that loads of times with old 126mm rear ends. I’ve had ten speed in some quite happily tbh.
Not bothered about range to much as it’s a triple up front. Same with indexing, it’s basically just lazy gear shifting. Far more satisfying learning to play the friction shifter trombone.
Me and my hammer tend not to over think things, so we’ll see where we get to, if it stays 7 speed, all good. Then I’ll just save for Etap and disc tabs...
