arent your shifters connected to welded bosses on the frame? if they are I wouldnt switch anyways because then you will have the things stickin out

You may be right...I'll have to check.

Believe they are, but Suntour had a bracket that bolted to the bosses that was used as a cable stop on their barcons bar end shifters. You could put one of those on their and it would look good too. :wink:

I didn't think I would like this bike in the beginning. Now that I see the final product, I want one!

Very nice job. Excellent attention to detail. Looks like a brand new production bike.

Nice job on this bike. Once again you breath new and different life into a underlooked bike. This would be a great commuter once you get the Freddy's on, especially with all your rain....rain, rain, go away, come back again another day.

Whoa...nice find Mark!!!

If you do what I did to mine you will love it.

The bike is very quiet, light, quick and nimble...oh and if you use touring bars it's actually comfortable too.
