lads i need to change things on my bike to get it looking like a proper tourer.
i'm not going to be using racks just the new trailer hopefully.so what i need recommendations for is the following.
triple chainset/bottom bracket to suit.
front/rear derailleurs.9 speed.
brake calibers .
i have to keep cost down as low as possible, basically no money .
so point me in the right direction lads what works what doesn't.
the problem i have finding brake calipers the dia comp one's have the nut on the back of the fork i want to scrap these and buy better brakes ,but the bolt on the new brakes are shorter and countersunk into the frame and front forks.hope im explaining that well enough.
my bike is an old Raleigh 753 road bike top of the line (in its day) really class bike they just dont make them like that anymore imho.
like to post pic's but no idea how to.
