I built up the bike with some fun stuff, did a lot of triathlons on it and put it away. Now, I'd like to bring it back, but in a road bike configuration. It's a 7s rear and what I'd like to do, is swap out the tri bars for some standard road bars and have the STI capability instead of DT shifters. Does anyone have a source for STI shifters for a 7s? Not sure I can go up to 8s due to rear stay width. I'll try to get some pics up in it's current configuration.
The '96 R models have 130 mm wide drop outs. You can use any 8+S you wish to.
