Hi,
I'm considering buying an old road bike with a complete Shimano 600 series drivetrain and would like
to make it into a city cruiser with a MTB style handlebar. I would therefore like to put a MTB
rapidfire shifter on the bike instead of the old non-indexed frame located shifter. I don't plan on
using the front derailleur at all.
How much do I have to change in order to achive this: both the cogs and the rear derailleur?
And is the hub in the 600 series compatible with the newer free cassettes?
Thanks,
- Anders
