    GT Avalanche 1998 - Project "Tequila Sunrise 2.0"

    Last week i changed the setup a bit by putting a drop bar instead of the flatone to use it like a monstercross-gravelish bike. Changed the stem into a shorter one to get a comfy and good reach at the shifters/brakelevers. The shifters/levers have longe cable pull ratio and in combination with...

    GT Avalanche 1998 - Project "Tequila Sunrise 2.0"

    Then this was the most exciting moments for me....painting the black lines by using the good old freehand and pencil. Spraying some black paint in a can and then carefully paint the lines like the real "Tequila Sunrise" was the plan. However this was not so easy as i thought it would be so...

    Specialized Rockhopper 1995 dropbar gravelgrinder

    Most 8- and 9-speed Shimano mountain bike and road kit is inter-compatible because they both use the same cable pull ratio. This means that you can use an 8 -or 9-speed mountain bike derailleur with road shifters or vice versa , in my case i used the Shimano Sora 9 speed shifters and a 9speed...

    Specialized Rockhopper 1995 dropbar gravelgrinder

    Re: Re: Like you said, it's pretty much standard for any roadbike shifter. Some (brand)shifters works a bit in a different way. Like the Shimano's for upshifting you have to pull the whole brake lever to the left en for downshifting there is a little lever attached wich you have to pusch. Sram...

Then he bought a more modern Mtb and this was left forgotten in the corner of his garage...
