New shifters and derailleur on old bike
Hello everybody,
I joined because I had a question about fitting new shifters and derailleur on a 10 speed (2x5) Schwinn World. The shifters are Sram X5 trigger shifters and the rear and front derailleurs are the corresponding Sram X5 models. I took them all to a bike shop here and they said that the indexing would be off and thus I would not be able to use the combo.
1) Can I use the shifters + derailleurs on my bike without too much modification?
2) If not could I use the derailleurs with the original Suntour steam shifters (they are not indexed)?
Thanks!
