Jeez,
Noodles, Cantis, Travel Agents, Crown Race, Pink and Clunk. Now I am confused.
For more background:
The crank on this bike is trashed and is the wrong length for me. The cables, shifters, brake levers, bottom bracket, and rear hub have also seen better days. I appreciate the thoughts on the brakes, I am fine with the existing brakes but want to install STI. As near as I can figure, I am going to have to use an MTB crank and bottom bracket to fit this frame. I want to get rid of the adjustable quill stem and flat bars. The existing derailers are okay but I plan on using a road cassette. I already have a new Mavic wheelset with 105 hubs.
I happen to like the feel of the carbon fork on my Lemond so will install one on this bike as well.
Thanks again for your thoughts.
