Another option is bar-end shifters. Those would also allow you to use long-pull drop bar brake levers and avoid the Travel Agents.
Well that’s not good to hear. I’ll have to see what is on this bike. If the FD pull ratio’s are different, then the chainring spacing between road and mtn cranksets must also be different? Never heard of that before, I’ll look into it.
