Old Steel Bike Touring Components Advice Needed
On an older Mercian circa 1976-77 I want to set it up as a tourer for longer day rides
I need advice on:
cranks and front chainrings that will work with this older bike
bb that will work in a tourer set-up with the cranks/chainring/derailleurs/freewheel you recommend
derailleurs that will work with a large 34 or ???? in back on freewheel
freewheel with 32 or 34 large cog ??? Hubs are Campy so freewheeel must work with the Campy hub.
The bike has Campy hubs. I'll keep it set up for 126mm spacing, so I guess 5 or 6 speed freewheel that work with Campy hubs.
Please post your recommendations of touring component for my vintage bike.
