I'd love a bike like that but the old-time road gearing just won't work for me (39x25? I know two 20% climbs within a mile from my house!)

Pretty much any Shimano shifter will work with any Shimano derailleur, you just have to match the gear count of the cassette to the shifter.

That goes only for rear derailleurs, and10-speed MTB and 11-speed road play only amongst themselves.

Dig the Pletscher on the back. Reminds me of my college days. Of course, we didn't have black ones back then.
