Vbrakes are newer technology I'm sure they would work better. I might even get a set with a front derailleur. Last time I checked front derailleurs were inexpensive. I just want to keep the cost down. Sorry about the large photos, I thought they would be downsized automatically.


Looks like a 200GS shifter, and that is a 91.

Some had seperate pods, it looks like your might be. On others you can detach the shifter unit from the brake lever, but there is no way to attach the shifters to the handlebar without the brake levers as the clamp include a cover IIRC. Look under the bulky rubber housing.
