I think I must be explaining this pretty poorly as I'm being told things I know and am prepared to do.
I'm trying to upgrade to a more comfortable ride and to do that I fully expect to have to change my rear wheel, derailieur and a few other bits. It would be nice if I could run 7 speed so that I only need to replace the freewheel and not the whole wheel, but at the same time I don't expect there to be many Sora brifters knocking about.
@knowthejo: cheers for the DIY suggestions - I'm a massive fan of mashing up bike parts to make them work how I want them to, I just hadn't considered this to be an opportunity but now I see it is. First port of call, the hardware store!
