yep! I just flipped those babies upside down and they work great!
- drop bars came from an old Ross 10-speed
- I required a 5" steerer tube extender to keep the drop bars 3" up where I like them
- I had to replace the right front brake cable cuz it needed to be a few inches longer
- the hard part was finding drop bars with a diameter close enough so that my stem and rapid fires would fit!!!!
BTW: this conversion was on a "hybrid" and this bike is now my most comfortable bike!
I went through a phase of trying drop style bar ends but that wasn't as good and going with a full swap. It took a while to get the fit right with the saddle and bar adjustments, but it's golden now! I commute on this bike and also rack up tons of miles during the warm months :-)
