also, does anyone have a link to a left twist shifter similar to the shimano on the nova. all i can find is a 3 speed, i imagine that a 2 speed twist shift doesn't exist, or i'd have to adjust the derailleur so that it will not pull off the chain if i only have a 2 speed crankset and accidentally bump it into 3rd up front.
or i could always get a generic thumb shifter
Yes, I got a double FD on mine. But triple FD's are available too.
You can get the 3 speed twist shifter and make it work with a double. You'll just have to adjust the limit screw on the FD.
I was going to use friction thumb shifters, but I couldn't find one that would fit my drop bars. Friction barend shifters from my local Craigslist ($15) was the best solution I found.
