In the spirit of using an existing thread vs. creating a new one I have some questions. Some may recall I picked up a Burley Duet and the Shimano Brifters are gummed/broken beyond use even after Simplegreen soaks etc. I have given up on them and a tad frustrated.

So, I have been given some Campy Mirage brifters. Seems I can get my hand on these easier than some old Suntour Barcons. Crazy huh!?

So, should I try to use these brifters and buy that special "pully" (I forget the name) to work with my Deore RD? Or should I still keep my powder dry and get some Barcons off eBay and stay as low tech as possible?

My cocern, maybe campy mirage will give me fits too and I will be just as frustrated. I am a Campy and brifter novice.

Thanks!
