It’s been a long time....

Hi everyone!

it’s been a long time! However I’m still shielding, (kidney transplant a few years back) I currently have a boardman hybrid! Very light! Now don’t laugh!
it has hydro brakes.

id like to swap the flats for drops! Is it possible?
Bearing in mind I’m not being paid at the mo! Can I do it on a budget? Can anyone give me some pointers ?

Not cheaply due to the brakes. If struggling with the bars, getting some Ergo grips might be better.

Ok thanks

The frame geometry may not work, you may find the bike too big once converted. Add some bar ends as above. If you really want a road bike, you’d probably be best off selling the hybrid and buying a used roadbike.

Not sure why anyone would laugh at you having a Hybrid

I was thinking more of the idea I’m thinking of! But thanks !
