A knowledgeable Suntour vendor said he did not recognize the model and
don't know if it is
a bastardized model, or something worth messing with to revive. Its
real hard to shift now,
but the same vendor said my adjustements seemed off visually.
Forgive the rust from recent rain. My bag over it hid it from me for a
couple of weeks. I've at least oiled it after riding yesterday, and I
am asking experts now to see if worth a rebuilding/adjustment effort to
make current Suntour rd work better. I don't need gear shifting now,
and am trying to minimize unneeded maintenance efforts since there is
so much else to do reviving my old bike. As well, until shifting is on
top in my aerobar cockpit, shifting is not exactly comfortable anyway
on downtubes with my hornless saddle; so rd adjustment efforts would
wait until get aerobar Swift Shift project complete. I am within a
couple of weeks on completing Swift Shift project; and have all parts
now except maybe a couple of shifter boss washers fabricated or
purchased and a whole lot of custom integration of new parts. I may get
LBS to do final adjustments which would be another week added. Its
riding great now, so just as long as can ride every week, it can take a
long time without inconveniencing myself at all. Just keep getting
healthier, lol.
I appreciate all the expert gurus on this site who have helped me along
on what looked to be impossble at first!
Thanks!!
