Since i have a random mix of parts around and used all of my budget on the bike, i'm going to have to find an inexpensive way to convert it. I'm not expecting that selling my tiagra/sora group will allow me to afford a full campy group. I had been toying with the idea of stripping my Guerciotti but the idea of friction shifters on a rando bike kind of appeals to me.
