Hi!
A mate wants to change the drop bars on his nice old road bike to swept back bars. I was hoping to use bar end shifters for this, as it has quite a nice look!
I actually have some really nice DA down tube shifters that I could use, if someone has the fixtures for mounting them into the end of the bar?
If not, I am after some full bar end shifters, indexed or not. I think they have 6 speed so nothing is going to index really anyway...
Happy to ride to collect within reason, I am based in Camberwell.
Thanks!
edit: Handlebar will be 22.2mm and will require the cable to be externally run, rather than internal as on modern tt bars!
