I have a Specialized Sirrus hybrid bike, and have started to do some
higher distance rides. I live in DC and ride along the Potomac, so wind
is often a problem. I've decide I want to convert to drop handlebars
for this bike. I've bought a set of bars and Shimano Sora shifter/brake
levers.
I was told that I don't need a stem, but that my V-style brake system
may not work. Will I need to change brake systems to get the Sora
levers to work? Is that true, or is there any more cost effective way
to fix the problem, or is it a problem at all?
