Brifter Upgrade Question
OK, I am really starting to get jealous of the modern drivetrains I see on my club rides.
I am riding a 1986 steel frame with full dura-ace 7400 6 speed...works fine but I am considering changing to 9 or 10 speed with brifters. The question is can I keep my front and rear derailleurs? I am hoping I could, to save money. I would ideally just buy the brifters, cassette/cogs (and a new rear wheel), and a chain. Heck, I would even keep the DT front derailleur (a la Lance) if it would save me a few bucks.
Would this work?
