Hi All,
I have just got hold of an old trek road alu frame. I am trying to make it into a flat bar type set up with some road components. I was hoping to mix something like campag breaks, shimano front and rear derailiure and some touring MTB gear shifters. Is it a case of a 9 spd derailiure and a 9 speed shifter or is the spacing different?
Will touring / MTB break leavers be fine with road style calipers?
I guess the idear will be a full racing group exept shifters. Will this work, what models will mix best and what will not mix at all?
