....gotta fix it cheap. I need the outlet of riding cause with a new baby I don't have time to head to the rivers to kayak....and it keeps me sane an hour at a time.
so I have an old cannondale from '94 or '95 I'd guess. The deltavee frame, light and stiff..I love it. Has a 7 speed rear cassette and I've busted the shifter. It is one of the two lever styles with a push and a pull and it mounts to the same clamp the brake lever is on. Nearly everything these days has a 9 speed cassette...will a 9 speed shifter work on a 7 speed cassette? Can I spread the rear triangle to accept an upgraded cassette? What are the chances of finding a used shifter that will bolt right on? It's deore lx by the way.
Thanks,
matt
