having put some more thought on what i hope to do with bike the priority would be to adjust handlebars to bull horns to give me a more upright position whilst riding in traffic, i agree with you ed that chaning from gears to rear hub is a bit of waste of cash. so thinking i would ideally like to add TT shifter for rear deraileur to bull horn bars off the frame, most the builds i see round town use the bar end for a break mounts, is there an sti type TT lever that can break and shift or do i need to add break levers separately? have seen the kelly mount one here on forum but hoping for a more elegant solution. other than that just need a new saddle and good to ride, saving for a respray in the future will post pics of the mods once they are on. advice on the brakes/shifters query gratefully appreciated
