Hi,
Can someone offer me some insight into what type of components I need to convert my Ridgeback Day 00 to drop down bars.
Its 24 speed, with 8 rings on back and three at front - What type of gear shifters will I need for this? Can someone tell me what 'flight deck compatible' means?
Can someone recommend some bars, nothing to fancy just entry level. I have been told that I may need to lengthen the arm holding the handlebar, is this true?
Has anyone done this before and can give me some instructions.
I am not looking to spend too much, I just want to start up cycling and get a feel. Rather then spending a load on a new bike I just want to convert me ridgeback.
All help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Tahir
