Do you have a "compact" crankset? 34x(something) 110bcd?
Not all of the current Shimano groupsets support a 3x option. Campagnolo generally does allow 3x for their shifters.
But, your change is likely going to take at least:
- New Crankset
- New Front Derailler (cyclocross, not MTB)
- New Left Shifter
Thanks clifford, my bike is still stock, the only thing I changed was the wheel set to Mavic ES. I didn't realize I'd have to change the shifter also. This may end up costing more than I expected.
