Touring build
This is a good thread. Many of the older MTB bikes that are being re proposed as city bikes and commuters are in need of a gearing change to taller more road friendly gears. I'm starting such a build now using a Raleigh 24" MTB, my third such conversion. I use lighter smoother tires, with aluminum wheels and switch out the handlebars/cables to aluminum bars with risers for a more upright position. I would like suggestions on what has 50 teeth on the big gear with three rings and 170 cranks?
