Hi,
I'm considering upgrading my shifters to STI and I saw a
pair of 600s at a local shop here for $50 with cables. The
problem I see though is that they're 8 speed and my bike
has a 7 ring spocket. That's only 7 speeds; but EIGHT
speed shifters. Thanks to my superior wit, I was able to
notice the difference right away. ALAS. Does that matter?
I don't know enough about it to know what to buy. Right
now i have 105 downtube shifters; a dura ace front and a
105 rear. I also have an ultegra rear that I also bought
used and it didn't seem to be compatable with my setup. I
was under the assumption that most shimano equipment was
compatable; except for some older DA stuff. If anyone can
help i'd really appreciate it. If you need model numbers I
can get them.
Oh i'm also considering replacing my 105 cranks with some DA
FC-7510s I saw at the same place for $50. Does that sound
like a good idea/deal? hah.
Thanks,
Andrew Behm
