I acquired this bike as parts, and all I had was a SRAM 3.0 shifter set. I found out it - like yourself - that it wouldn't work right, sometimes skipping a gear for each click.


I modified the 7-speed shifter by dremeling extra detents into the inside ring. Being I needed a 2:1 ratio, adding a detent between each of the stock detents gave me the clicks I needed. Thing worked like a champ. Alot of work, but functional.
