I recently purchased a road bike, that I plan to use for commuting to work.
The bike is a Peugeot U-08 with mostly Shimano-600 parts.
It currently is using friction shifing, which I have gotten used to.
I like the bike and want to fix it up in my spare time.
What details about the bike will I have to know in order to determine if I can switch from friction tube shifters to handle bar indexed ones?
Does anoyne have any documentation online about the best way to go about this?
I am kind of a n00b when it comes to this biking stuff, but I understand what the parts are and one thing that I do like is the fact that most of the things seem simple enough for the average person to do and understand.
Thanks,
